Default how to remove blank last page

Since the landscape section is the last content page in the document, a
section break following it is NOT required.

Note that you can format the section break as hidden (or 1 pt). Of course,
if it isn't needed (I haven't been reading the whole thread), it would be
easier to just delete it.

Format | Font | Hidden, but it won't work, either, because you clearly
have a section break; see my other post.

1 pt. didn't work and I did reduce the table for more than 3 rows.

What "Hidden" mean by you please ?

If one point didn't do it, did Hidden not work? Can you reduce the
height of
the table slightly?

news There was a section break before the table.
Let me put all the pieces together :

first 5 pages = portrait
section break
page 6 = landscape, it's the table but there's still some line
spacing on
the page
actually page 6 is the last page of the document
but then page 7 = blank page which was created automatically and that
I
couldn't remove it

As in your (Suzanne) page, there would be a paragraph after the
table,
there's no paragraph on page 6, it's on page 7 (portrait), so I've
changed
into 1 point, it's a blank page (pg.7).
I can't see a para. after the table on the same page (pg. 6), I
pressed
the
"backspace" from page 7, then the cursor went back on the top of the
table
in
pg.6 and I don't see a section break after the table.

I am completely lost now....
Please help.

thanks
Karen

yes, but I didn't do it myself. its automatically there because
the 1st
5
pages are portrait, then I have to add a section break for the 6th
page
for
the table.
Can I get rid of the section break ?

Do you have a Section Break after the table? What is the
orientation
of
the
unwanted blank page? If it is portrait, then for sure you do
have a
Section
Break after the table.

Hi Suzanne,

I have the same problem as this threat and did try to resolve
as you
wrote
in the link listed below but no success after having tried for
almost
an
hour
!

I have the table in my last page and I did change the font of
the
last
para.
into 1 point, as a matter of fact, after the table, I still
have a
couple
of
rows (space) on the page too.

Here's my file is:
6 pages, first 5 pages are portrait, 6th page is landscape with
the
table.
There are header and footer for the file.

Would that be something to do with the section ?

Please help ? I know it may be simple but I just couldn't get
there....
thanks
Karen

how do you get rid of a blank last page of a doc? I've
tried to
bs
and
delete the reviewing characters but can't. I'm about to
jump off
a
cliff
for
spending so much time on something that should be simple!
