Forgive me if this seems too simple, but the easiest way is generally to select the material you don't need and press the Delete key. To make the selection, click at the beginning of the material, use the scroll bar or mouse wheel to bring the end of the material into view, and hold the Shift key while clicking at the end. If there are section breaks in the material to be deleted, this could cause some formatting (margins, columns) to change. For that, see http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/WorkWithSections.htm If there are manual page breaks in the document, you can see them to select and delete them by switching to Normal view. An alternative is to copy the material you do need, create a new blank document, and paste the material into it. However, this won't bring along anything in headers or footers of the original document; those would have to be copied/pasted separately. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org See http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/BlankPage.htm  SignatureSuzanne S.

Place your cursor at the top of page 2, press and hold the Shift and Ctrl keys, hit the End key. This will highlight everything from that point to the end. Now hit the delete key.
