Page break problem
I have inherited a document (Word 2003) which seems to have some sort of
forced page break in it - which I can't seem to delete. So, I want to add text to Page 1, however I'm unable to access the space - being forced instead to Page 2. The formatting seems normal when I view with the show/hide or reveal formatting buttons. I've checked the text is "normal" and tried to remove all other formatting. There is a black square blob on page 2 when I show/hide but I can't delete it. I've checked the page set up too and can't see anything there which I can change. Any ideas? |

Page break problem
If that "black square blob" is actually rather small and in the left margin
adjacent to the 1st line of the 1st para on that page it is a clear indication of the most likely source of your problem:-) It indicates that one or more of the Format Paragraph Line & Page Breaks attributes have been applied to that paragraph. With your insertion point in the para, go into the Format Paragraph dialog box & you'll most likely find a check in the box on the Line & Page Breaks page for Page Break Before. -- HTH |:) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Zoe @ Telnic" wrote in message ...

Page break problem
Thanks - I did manage to sort it myself in the end which is always better.
it's good to know the website works though "CyberTaz" wrote: If that "black square blob" is actually rather small and in the left margin adjacent to the 1st line of the 1st para on that page it is a clear indication of the most likely source of your problem:-) It indicates that one or more of the Format Paragraph Line & Page Breaks attributes have been applied to that paragraph.
