Word's gone bananas... driving me nuts!

Jim Wood

I have generated a new document using an old one as a template; actually
using lots of the old doc, but cutting, pasting and entering new text. I
have a situation where Word has inserted a blank page that I can't get rid of.

There are NO section breaks in this part of the document. The next
paragraph after the blank page is NOT checked for 'Page Break Before,' nor is
there an Insert/Break/Page Break at this point. What's more, the paragraph
that immediately follows the blank page CANNOT BE DELETED. This paragraph is
just a heading, but if the whole heading is highlighted, pressing Delete does
nothing. I can select just the text of the heading and delete that, but the
paragraph mark will NOT delete. It's as though I'm seeing that paragraph
mark at the end of a Word document that can't be deleted, but it's in the
middle of this document. Someone please help.
