Removing page breaks in Word 2007
Hi,
I'm working on someone else's document in Word 2007 with tracked changes switched on that may have been created in an earlier version of Word. There is a page break that I can't get rid of. I've tried selecting it and pressing Delete, but the cursor just jumps to the text on the following page. This has happened before and I just gave up in the end. Please advise me what to do. -- aidan

Removing page breaks in Word 2007
If you delete a page break while track changes is turned on, the page break
will be visible in the document as long as you are in “Final Showing Markup” view. Have you tried switching to “Final” view (Review tab Tracking group)? Then the page break should be gone. Alternatively, you can turn off Track Changes before you delete the page break, delete it and turn on Track Changes again. Then it will disappear at once. But if you are supposed to register all changes, you should keep the setting turned on – things will be OK when the changes are accepted. -- Regards Lene Fredborg - Microsoft MVP (Word) DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "Aidan" wrote: Hi, I'm working on someone else's document in Word 2007 with tracked changes switched on that may have been created in an earlier version of Word.

Removing page breaks in Word 2007
That's great, thanks. I turned off tracked changes and I had no problems
deleting the break. Seems a bit strange to have to do this though. But many thanks for your help. -- aidan "Lene Fredborg" wrote: If you delete a page break while track changes is turned on, the page break will be visible in the document as long as you are in “Final Showing Markup” view.
