how to remove blank last page
I haven't done the section break after the table (page 6), the section break
is before the table, i.e. prior to the changing from portriat to landscape. When I turn on the paragraph sign, I don't see a section break after the table either. I have tried point 1, hidden, change the margin at the bottom of the table page, make the table smaller with a couple of rows less, etc. etc. What did I do wrong ? OR can you please tell me step by step to create a new document, I can just copy and paste the text from the existing document to a new document as long as I have the 1st 5 pages in portrait and the last page to be the table page in landscape. appreciate it if you could help me out on this, otherwise, I will type "THIS IS A BLANK PAGE" in my last page for the solution although I don't really want to.... looks silly, because this is an instruction document.

how to remove blank last page
Okay, let's make one thing clear: You CANNOT have a portrait page after your
landscape table without having a section break (Next Page) between them. And, as I said in a previous post, if you want to delete the section break without changing the landscape orientation of the table page, you have to change the orientation of that last page/section to landscape BEFORE deleting the section break. If you have difficulty seeing the section break even in Normal/Draft view, then you can search for ^b or use Browse by Section to find it. You *will* be able to delete it, and that is the only way you can remove the last page. The link Stefan gave you to http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting...thSections.htm should be helpful as well. In this case, since your table doesn't fill the page, you could convert the Next Page break to a Continuous break. You'll still need to change the orientation of that last page first; then, with the insertion point on the last page, go to the Layout tab of Page Setup and change the section start type. -- Suzanne S.
