Hi Doug, The code works exactly as I described my request, however, I only
wanted to delete the section break, not the whole section. Can you modify the
recommendation to only delete the section break, or at least just go back to
the previous section break. Thanks :-)

myrange.Delete

Can someone show me the VBA syntax to find the previous section from the
current cursor position and deleting it.
