I have a two-page document in Word, but for some reason a third page has
appeared. How can I eliminate this? I want to e-mail the document as an
attachment and don't really want to send a blank page. I realize if I were
printing, I could just print the first 2 pages.Still, tht doesn't explain why
it happens (it's not the first time). I believe I'm using Word 2000.
 
A lot of things can cause a blank page, and the cure depends on which of
those things is to blame.

First thing to do is to display the non-printing characters by clicking on
the ¶ button in your Standard toolbar. Then look for page breaks, section
breaks, or extra paragraph markers at the end of your document. Delete them,
and your phantom page should disappear.

I hope this helps.
