Hi,
Word 2002 Win XP
I have a table in a word doc that fits on 1 page.
For some reason, there is a blank second page to the document that I cannot
get rid of--no matter what I do.
Seems there cd be a "permanent" page break.
How Can I fix that?
Tx,
S

That was an UN-helpful answer.  It takes hours and hours to read through every single category in this forum.  When someone poses a question or a problem, he or she most likely does not know if the same or a similar question has been posted in another section or even in the same section months and months ago.  Why not just answer the person's question, if you know the answer.  I have spend hours and hours tonight, myself just searching for a few answers.  If I got a response like yours, it would only make me feel even more exhausted than I already am. Try a little kindness, next time.

You can remove all page breaks from a document in the following way:

1. From the Edit menu, choose Replace.

2. In the Find box, type ^m

3. Leave the Replace box empty.

4. Click Replace All.

Adding some details...

In my previous response I described how to delete manual page
breaks by replacing them with nothing. If your document
contains section breaks that you want to get rid of, you can use a
similar approach; the only difference is that you should use ^b for
Replace with instead of ^m.

Alternatively, you can change the type of all section breaks to
"Continuous." On the Layout tab of the Page Setup dialog box (to
display this dialog box, choose Page Setup on the File menu), specify
"Continuous" under "Section start", make sure that "Apply to" reads
"Whole document", and click OK.

Page breaks can also be paragraph formatting. Display the Paragraph
dialog box (Format > Paragraph) and check if "Page break before" is
enabled on the Line and Page Breaks tab.

There is always a hard return after the table and that is what's givin
you that extra page.  You can't delete the return so what you need t
do to get rid of that extra page is to either change your bottom pag
margin or else go to that hard return and make the font smaller fo
that line.

Edited to add:  for that line, you can also change the spacing befor
and after to 0 pt
