Default how to remove blank last page

sorry, I have found the Table properties, it was around.
I changed the Text wrapping to none.
After changing, the section break went down underneath the table. Before
changing: The section break was showed on the top of the table (landscape).

The unwanted blank page remains - portrait and the beginning of the 1st row
with a ¶ sign.

What is the orientation of the unwanted last page?

Also in the Table properties dialog, make sure that the Text wrapping is set
to None.

If you click on the Show/Hide button (¶), what do you see after the table?

There was a section break before the table.
Let me put all the pieces together :

first 5 pages = portrait
section break
page 6 = landscape, it's the table but there's still some line spacing on
the page
actually page 6 is the last page of the document
but then page 7 = blank page which was created automatically and that I
couldn't remove it

As in your (Suzanne) page, there would be a paragraph after the table,
there's no paragraph on page 6, it's on page 7 (portrait), so I've changed
into 1 point, it's a blank page (pg.7).
I can't see a para. after the table on the same page (pg. 6), I pressed
the
"backspace" from page 7, then the cursor went back on the top of the table
in
pg.6 and I don't see a section break after the table.

I am completely lost now....
Please help.

thanks
Karen

You need a section break before the table but not after.

yes, but I didn't do it myself. its automatically there because the 1st
5
pages are portrait, then I have to add a section break for the 6th page
for
the table.
Can I get rid of the section break ?

Hi Suzanne,

I have the same problem as this threat and did try to resolve as you
wrote
in the link listed below but no success after having tried for
almost
an
hour
!

I have the table in my last page and I did change the font of the
last
para.
into 1 point, as a matter of fact, after the table, I still have a
couple
of
rows (space) on the page too.

Here's my file is:
6 pages, first 5 pages are portrait, 6th page is landscape with the
table.
There are header and footer for the file.

Would that be something to do with the section ?

Please help ? I know it may be simple but I just couldn't get
there....
thanks
Karen

how do you get rid of a blank last page of a doc? I've tried to
bs
and
delete the reviewing characters but can't. I'm about to jump off
a
cliff
for
spending so much time on something that should be simple!
