Video Transcript:
Step 1. Open your document in Microsoft Word, and click anywhere on the page you want to delete.
Step 2. Press "Control" and "G" on your keyboard. The Find and Replace window opens on the Go To tab.
Step 3. Make sure "Page" is selected under "Go to what," type \page in the "Enter page number" box, and press "Enter" on your keyboard. Then click "Close." All of the content on that page is now selected.
Step 4. Press "Delete" on your keyboard. Everything on that page is removed. If you're left with a blank page, it's usually because of extra empty paragraphs or a page break, so let's get rid of that next.
Showing the hidden formatting marks makes the cause of a blank page easy to find.
Step 1. Click the "Home" tab in the ribbon, and then click the "Show/Hide" button in the Paragraph group. It looks like a paragraph mark. Paragraph marks and page breaks now appear in your document.
Step 2. Scroll to the blank page, select the empty paragraph marks and the page break on that page, and then press "Delete" on your keyboard. The blank page disappears, and the content after it moves up.
If there's a blank page at the end of your document right after a table, Word won't let you delete the final paragraph mark. Instead, select that paragraph mark, click in the "Font Size" box on the Home tab, type 1, and then press "Enter." The mark becomes small enough to fit on the previous page, and the blank page disappears. And if you delete the wrong thing, just press "Control" and "Z" to undo it.
