Need help with MS word 2003 - How do I delete an empty page?

Learner

Hi,

I was updating my resume and reduced 6 page resume to 5 resume. I
thought that when I reduced it to 5 page the 6 page would
automatically get deleted but it didn't! Can some one help me how do I
delete the empty page which looks odd when I keep it like that.


Thanks,

If your last page goes down to the very bottom, you probably have an
empty paragraph or several after it. Turn on Show Non-Printing
Characters (with the paragraph-sign button on the toolbar), or Tools
Options > View > Paragraph Marks, and then delete all the paragraph
Click to expand...
marks after your last item, except the very last one.

It could be that you have "empty" paragraphs or a page break left at the end
of your document.
Show the Non-printing characters by either Ctrl+Shft+8 or pressing the
Show/Hide icon on the standard toolbar, this will display what is at the end
of your document that is forcing page 6.
Come back if this does not solve your problem.
