Default I cannot delete a blank page in word 2007

I cannot delete a blank page in one of my documents using the usual methods.
It simply refuses to budge! I copied and pasted a table from another document
and this has gone across several pages (which is OK) but there is a blank
page in the middle which wasn't in the original table and I just cannot get
rid of it.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
Martin

Turn on your non-printing characters. There's "something" there - doing that
may help you see what.

Default I cannot delete a blank page in word 2007

AMAZING HOW STUPID PEOPLE ARE. Why is the REPLY way over above the questions?
MARTIN, I would try to hilite the section and CUT it. Now tell me how to
DELETE a file after I open it? Why is there not DELETE in the same box where
SAVE, PRINT is. Like I said AMAZING HOW STUPID PEOPLE ARE. To me OFFICE is
way to complicated for a normal person. I was doing some lists & it wants to
capitalize the fist letter on the next line. That is, when I hit enter to go
to the next line it always wants to capitalize. It will not change the print
size so we can print different sizes easy. I rarely use it as I do not do a
lot. Only my ideas for inventions. THANKS, @ POORTLAND

You need to calm down, fella.

The reason why there isn't a delete button is because people are sure to
accidentally press it when they really don't want to. If you want to delete a
file, you have to close it, then select it (anywhere. In the program, in
Documents, wherever), and hit "delete." If you want to forego it going to the
recycle bin, you hit shift and delete.

As for lists: it's very very easy to get it to stop capitalizing. When it
does it, just hit backspace until you delete the first word and retype it. It
won't capitalize it on that line, and when you continue with your list (by
hitting enter), it won't capitalize the first word again.

As for printing in different sizes, that's limited by your PRINTER, not the
program. When you're in the print dialog box, hit "properties." You can
navigate to page size from there. Oh, you want the document to be that size?
That's easy as well. I don't have 2007 in front of me, but in older Word,
File Page Setup, and choose the "paper" size. There, you can set the
dimensions for your paper.

It's actually quite easy once you take the time to calm the hell down and
ask questions.

TUE. APRIL- 22-08 18:05 P.S.T. If I were smart or educated I would make it so
in the FILE I would have DELETE then it would ask ARE YOU SURE? Then to
change different sizes, font, I would make it so we could hi-lite a section
and change that to the size the person would like to have. I have a HP
DESKJET 3650 that prints all sizes. The problem is, the people who write
programs and the ones who want the ca$h do not want to make diffeent types of
word or office. They want to make one that fits all so they end up with one
that most people cannot use. They could make them so we could choose the
parts we want. Is there some that we can use a stylus and just write on the
screen? REX
