There's a blank page at the end of my document that I
cannot delete.  Is their a fix for this?

thank you.

Click the Show/Hide toolbar button on the Standard toolbar
in order to display nonprinting characters. Can you see
contents, for example, paragraph marks (¶), on your last
page? If you can see them, delete them.

Note that if the page before a blank page contains a
table, it might not be possible to get rid of all
undesired paragraph marks, and, consequently, you won't be
able to get rid of the blank page. The reason is that a
table is always followed by a paragraph mark, and --
depending on text wrap options and the size of the table --
that paragraph mark could be positioned on the following
page, which would result in an extra page.

If this is the case, you can format the paragraph mark
following the table to be hidden; then the extra page
won't print.
