I have a document that was originally created in WordPerfect and has been converted to Word 97. The document is 18 pages long and after removing text from several of the pages, I now have a 15 page document with 3 blank pages. Page numbering has been applied to this piece.

I cannot figure out how to remove the last 3 pages. Any ideas??? Thanks! -Dottie

It probably has section breaks in it. Turn your show/hide button on to delete them or:

ctrl-h

In find what, put ^b

In replace with put nothing.

Hit replace all.
