How do I delete page two or three when I am no longer using them
in a regular Word Doc. Not a template. |

Assuming that you're talking about pages at the end of your document, place
the cursor after your last "period," then pres Ctrl+Shift+End. That will select the remainder of your document. Then press Delete. "marci" wrote in message ... How do I delete page two or three when I am no longer using them in a regular Word Doc. Not a template. |

In addition, check to see if you have "Track Changes" turned on. If it is on,
consider turning it off and doing an "Accept all changes." Sometimes you'll find that if a document has been revised many times, you'll have blank pages for no apparent reason. Doing an "Accept all changes" may make them go away as desired.

Thanks to those who wrote. But, I tried both solutions and neither worked. A
blank page two is still there???? "dawn_treador" wrote: In addition, check to see if you have "Track Changes" turned on. If it is on, consider turning it off and doing an "Accept all changes."

Have you tried looking in Normal view to see if you have any section breaks
or page breaks. You will be able to delete them in Normal view. "marci" wrote: Thanks to those who wrote. But, I tried both solutions and neither worked. A blank page two is still there????

Also, here are some things to check:
--For the first line after the empty pages, put your cursor there and click Format Paragraph Line and Page Breaks, and check to see whether "Page break before" is checked. If it is, uncheck it, and see what happens. --Expose hidden text and see if that is causing the ripple. To expose hidden text, click Tools Options View tab, check "Hidden", click OK.
