Word Page Swapping

I have 2 pages.
WithOUT reformatting, how can I switch the order of the pages. (page 2 becomes page 1 & visa-versa)

The concept of a page is rather vague in Word, but if you mean the content
in the main text area, then select everything on page 2 and Press CTRL+X.
Move the cursor to the beginning and press CTRL+V.

I am a fairily advanced user and I have tried that but due to the variation of text an, charts and grapics, even 'select all' does not work. I would be great if it worked like in ppt.
Thx

As I indicated a page is a vague concept in Word, because of all the
different independent 'layers' of information that make up the document.
Unlike Powerpoint it is not a page layout driven application.

You could try the following macro - but the issues will still conspire to
frustrate it:

Sub PageMove()
sNumber = InputBox("Move to location before which page?", "Move Page", 1)
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\page").Range.Cut
Selection.GoTo What:=wdGoToPage, Which:=wdGoToNext, Name:=sNumber
Selection.Paste
End Sub

This will move the content of the page the cursor is in to the start of the
page you indicate at the prompt.
