why is this SO hard ......
- May 15, 2024Hi Charles,
I think I got it ...... I took the pages I needed from the old document - cut and pasted the pages I wanted plus the preceding page and the page following what I needed - so if I want the middle page I grabbed 3 in total.
- Deleted page one and it usually shifted the document up one page so now it's down to 2 pages
- Then clicked the Show / Hide button - Cntl*Shift*8
- Place the cursor in the portrait page before the section break;
- Click the Page Setup dialogue box launcher (Layout > Page Setup);
- Clicked OK (or press Enter), without making any changes to the settings;
- Place the cursor in the landscape page following the section break;
- Press F4.
That seems to clear out that last blank page I never needed !!
Cheers'

Hi Charles,
These docs were initially in a binder and we just photocopied new ones as needed - now I'm moving them all over to an electronic design or Form using a program called: One Span with their tool "Designers" and it takes the page of text and you drag and drop radio buttons, and text fields, and signature fields. checkboxes, etc, on to the document to turn it in to an electronic form.
So before when we needed a new sheet we old school printed just the one page we needed out of the manual and used that or photocopied a bunch. So before having another page wasn't a problem since we literally just photocopied or printed a new page.
That's why I need to get rid of that second page of useless blank "Stuff". So I have attached that semi edited First Aid Log again. As you can see it's 99% ready to go, all of page one is just fine, it has the info on the page we need and the header looks just dandy, I just need to delete that second page thats blank with the header on the sheet.
I'm just going to ask you if you could just please tell me the steps to delete that second page, I don't need a table, and I don't know what that is anyway. I have two "forms" left to add to our Fill and Sign electronic file cabinet, this first aid log and a emergency drill record and I'm done will all of it.
