In Word 2007 (I know) I have along table that spreads over many pages. If I want to remove a page from the middle, how do I do it? I know how to remove all the text, but can't find how to get rid of the blank table in just that page.
Thank You
Mouse pointer above the top of the column to be deleted (should become a downwards pointing arrow) > right-click > Delete columns
Multiple consecutive columns : Mouse pointer above the top of the column to be deleted (should be downwards pointing arrow) > click and drag along columns > right click > Delete
Non-consecutive columns > click first column, as above, hold Ctrl key > click selected columns
OR
Mouse pointer in any cell > right click > Select > column. Delete as above after selected
Nothing wrong with that, works fine on one of my devices, as does 2003 on another device. Must drag out 2002 and see how that goes
When I delete column, it deletes that column in all the other pages as well.
John,
Yes, I imagine that igdat meant to suggest hovering the cursor off to the left then selecting & deleting the unwanted rows.

However I do it, it takes out the column in every page. I can delete it row by row, which works, but it seems a long winded way of doing it.
If you hover the mouse over to the left of a table, and left-click-drag down, it should select all the rows (including the terminator at the RHS), then rt-click and select 'delete rows'. I would create an animation, but that takes so long (for me).
That only deletes the text. How do I then remove the blank table?
John,
By selecting Delete rows from the right-click menu while you have the rows selected.
That deletes the rows themselves not just the text.
Denis
Brilliant, simple when you know how. Thank you for your help, really appreciated.
