Default How do you change Section Layout properties in Word (2003)templates?

Hi there,

I'm noticing that there are 2 sections (right after the cover page and
after the table of contents page) that end with a "Section Break (Odd
Page)". I would like to change this to just New Page instead of Odd
Page, because this is adding an extra blank page.

However, I can't seem to access "Section" configurations in the
template. When you modify styles, there doesn't seem to be a way to
get to those options. In fact, the only way I found out about this
issue was by clicking "Reveal formatting".

Each section (ie. Margins, Layout, Paper, Header and Footer, etc) is
hyperlinked to its corresponding dialog box, so I tried changing the
settings there and saving the template. However, these changes don't
stick, because the blank pages are still showing up in other files.

Any help provided would be great. Thanks!
