Extra (Hidden) Page with Section Breaks
I need to know why Word inserts an extra (hidden) page in documents when you
insert a section break? I do not see the page in my document, but when I print it, there is an extra page directly after the Section break (which I use to number the TOC page differently from the rest of the document). This has occurred before and I am wondering: 1 - why this happens, 2 - what I can do to prevent it and 3 - how can I remove the page when I can't even access it? Thank you. Sandra |

Extra (Hidden) Page with Section Breaks
In the section that begins after the hidden blank page, go to the Layout tab
of Page Setup and see what the section start type is. If it's "Odd page," try changing it back to "New page." -- Suzanne S.

Extra (Hidden) Page with Section Breaks
Suzanne,
I did change this Page Setup to "New page" (it was set to "Odd page"), but there is still an extra page in there. Sandra "Suzanne S.

Extra (Hidden) Page with Section Breaks
See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/BlankPage.htm for other suggestions,
but note that if you are restarting numbering at 1 in your new section, Word will force an odd page regardless of anything else you do because 1 *must* be an odd page. -- Suzanne S.
