begin a document

[afdmello]

I am presently writing procedures.The first page and the second page is
filled up by another person.
Which is the best way to leave the first two pages blank for subsequent data
addition?

I continuously hit the enter key until I land on the third page and begin my
document.

It would be more efficient to insert two page breaks (Ctrl+Enter). Better
still to insert just one, leaving one blank page, and letting the other user
type continuously to fill as many pages as needed. If you insert two page
breaks, you'll almost certainly end up with a blank page between your part
and the other person's part.

That is certainly not the best way.

Instead, press Ctrl+Enter to insert a page break. You can let the
other person create both of the first two pages, or you can insert two
page breaks in the new document (but that might cause a bad break for
the other person, who would then have to delete one of the breaks you
inserted).

Thank you Suzanne and Jay.

My profound gratitude always as my learning is from your concise and prompt
