how to remove blank last page
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 "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/BlankPage.htm -- Suzanne S.

how to remove blank last page
Do you have a Section Break after the table? What is the orientation of the
unwanted blank page? If it is portrait, then for sure you do have a Section Break after the table. -- Hope this helps.

how to remove blank last page
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 "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: You need a section break before the table but not after. -- Suzanne S.

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 ΒΆ sign. "Doug Robbins - Word MVP" wrote: What is the orientation of the unwanted last page?

how to remove blank last page
If the orientation of the unwanted last page is portrait, then there *must*
be a section break between it and the landscape page. Switching to Normal/Draft view should make it possible for you to see and delete this break, but before you do that, change the orientation of the last section to landscape; otherwise the table section will become portrait and will have to be changed. -- Suzanne S.

how to remove blank last page
Note that a section break stores the formatting of the previous section.
When you delete it, Word will use the formatting of the following break (or the section formatting stored in the final paragraph mark if you are deleting the final section break of a document). After you've deleted the break, change the orientation back to Landscape using the Page Setup dialog box.

how to remove blank last page
I haven't done the section break after the table (page 6), the section break
is before the table, i.e. prior to the changing from portriat to landscape. When I turn on the paragraph sign, I don't see a section break after the table either. I have tried point 1, hidden, change the margin at the bottom of the table page, make the table smaller with a couple of rows less, etc. etc. What did I do wrong ? OR can you please tell me step by step to create a new document, I can just copy and paste the text from the existing document to a new document as long as I have the 1st 5 pages in portrait and the last page to be the table page in landscape. appreciate it if you could help me out on this, otherwise, I will type "THIS IS A BLANK PAGE" in my last page for the solution although I don't really want to.... looks silly, because this is an instruction document.

how to remove blank last page
Okay, let's make one thing clear: You CANNOT have a portrait page after your
landscape table without having a section break (Next Page) between them. And, as I said in a previous post, if you want to delete the section break without changing the landscape orientation of the table page, you have to change the orientation of that last page/section to landscape BEFORE deleting the section break. If you have difficulty seeing the section break even in Normal/Draft view, then you can search for ^b or use Browse by Section to find it. You *will* be able to delete it, and that is the only way you can remove the last page. The link Stefan gave you to http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...thSections.htm should be helpful as well. In this case, since your table doesn't fill the page, you could convert the Next Page break to a Continuous break. You'll still need to change the orientation of that last page first; then, with the insertion point on the last page, go to the Layout tab of Page Setup and change the section start type. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA http://word.mvps.org "KarenY" wrote in message ... I haven't done the section break after the table (page 6), the section break is before the table, i.e. prior to the changing from portriat to landscape. When I turn on the paragraph sign, I don't see a section break after the table either. I have tried point 1, hidden, change the margin at the bottom of the table page, make the table smaller with a couple of rows less, etc. etc. What did I do wrong ? OR can you please tell me step by step to create a new document, I can just copy and paste the text from the existing document to a new document as long as I have the 1st 5 pages in portrait and the last page to be the table page in landscape. appreciate it if you could help me out on this, otherwise, I will type "THIS IS A BLANK PAGE" in my last page for the solution although I don't really want to.... looks silly, because this is an instruction document.
