This is known as the Equinox. It occurs when the Sun is directly over the equator. At this time of the year, the length of the day equals the length of night over the entire Earth. There are two equinoxes every year and the exact time and day can change from year to year. The 2007 Vernal equinox was March 20 at 7:07pm Central Standard Time. The 2007 Autumnal equinox will occur on September 23 at 4:51 Central Daylight time.

Do you mean, at the same instant of time, like 6:15 AM on 26 July, 2007? And at this instant of time, the sun is setting and rising at the same time? And you want to know where this is?
The sun can't rise and set at the same time. It either is doing one thing or the other, or neither one.

It doesn't rise and set at the time and place. There is up to a 45 degree difference in where the sun rises and sets.

If I understand your question correctly, then....
There is no location on Earth where the sun sets and rises at the same time each day. Because the Earth is tilted, the sun will rise at a different time at will set at a different time at every single point on the Earth.

Do you mean the same time of day? If that's the question it would be the equinox that is the day where the daylight is the same is darkness. Actually a more accurate description would be: "the time of day when the Sun crosses the celestial equator. The number of hours of daylight and night are approximately equal. This happen twice a year and it is the beginning of the spring and fall season

That is in the space, about 750000 miles far!.
You have to go to the space, to the point little farther than where the shadow cone (umbra) of the Earth ends. There you would see the Sun in the East and in the West, and in the North and in the south too. This is somehow an annular eclipse, but the Sun would be behind the Earth.

Rising and Setting at normal altitudes? and by the word "Where" in the question, if you mean a large area, then its possible if area the coverage is upto 180 degrees from east to west
sun never rises and sets at a any point at normal lattitudes
