Section #35 of my document contains a form that I need. When I delete all
sections before it, my section is still #35, and the total size of my 25MB
document does not change much. How can I delete all sections prior to mine,
so mine becomes #1?

You must be missing something in the deletion. The section number is
determined by counting the section breaks, starting from the start of the
document. If you've deleted all the sections or section breaks preceding
your form, then it is in section 1.

I highlite everything (including sections breaks) from the beginning of the
document till my section #35 and delete it all. My section is on the first
page. However, on the bottom left it still says Section #35.

Then either the status bar display is not updating or you have 35 section
breaks on page 1. Or there really is a Santa Claus.

Hi,
Did you disconnect (same as previouse) all the headers and footers between
sections?
