Default Page break and header/footer problems with RTF document

Hi Dave -

Definitely explore the points offered by Robert - I just wanted to clarify
one thing based on the last part of your post...

Headers & Footers don't cause page breaks, it's whatever causes the page
breaks that generates Headers & Footers. IOW suppressing (even if you could)
or deleting them will not remove the cause of the page breaks.

It may also help if you switch to Normal View - sometimes Section Breaks are
easier to spot.

Hello

I have an .rtf document which I got off a CD (it is photocopiable material
for teachers)

The problem is I need to edit this document a little bit before I can use
it.

Basically, I wanted to gain space but there seems to be a page break in it
cos I can't move text up from page 2 to page 1

However, I can't see the page break even when I display paragraph markers
etc by clicking on the 'line break' icon

The second possibility is that this is caused by the header and footers in
the document but I can't seem to supress these either using the usual method
(select and supress). There doesn't seem to be a supress option when I put
my cursor inside a header

Have to admit that I am not the world's foremost expert on these functions
but normally I manage to get rid of these things at the end of the day.

But not this time.

Any ideas as to why?

Thanks

Dave Neve
