Hi linda

in an access form or in a word document?
AFAIK you can't have page breaks in access forms ... so if it's word you're
after and it's a manual page break go into normal view ... (view / normal
view), find the page break, click on it and press your DELETE key on the
keyboard.

Just for future reference there's some good word newsgroups, you might like
to try
microsoft.public.word.newusers.

Cheers

Hi, Julie.

FYI: There is such a thing as a page break on an Access form. It can be
applied to the form while in Design View, and it appears as a short dotted
black line on the far left of the form.

However, since Linda is referring to a "document," not a "form," I'm sure
that you hit the nail on the head about a Word document.

Hi Gunny

i thought there was a page break in a form too, but when i went looking for
on in a sample form that i had i couldn't find it ... is this because it is
automatically put in not manually

Hi, Julie.

A page break is a control that is normally manually inserted on the form
(unless one is dealing with a wizard that executes VBA code to automate
this). One can insert a page break on a form while in Design View by
selecting the "Page Break" icon on the Toolbox toolbar and dragging it to
the form. The icon looks like two documents placed vertically aligned and
with a tiny triangle on the left with a vertex pointing to the space between
the two documents. If one hovers the mouse over the icons on the Toolbox
toolbar, the names of each of the controls will appear as tooltips.

how do I remove an unwanted page break in the middle of a document?

I cannot select the break line. I am using Microsoft Word to create a
document.

It would be best to post such a question in a Word newsgroup. However,
since you are here, press Ctrl + Shift + * to view non-printing characters
(including page and section breaks) which you can then remove. Or you can
use Replace from the Edit menu: Edit > Replace > More > Format to search
for things other than printing characters. In the Replace box, put nothing.
Be sure Track Changes (Tools > Track Changes) is turned off. Another thing
to try is paragraph formatting to be sure Page Break Before is not selected.

Where do I find the page break control in 2007. Don't see it in the toolbox.
Thanks.
