Hi Tim,
Oh no! What if you open up Notepad and paste the unwanted text in there,
then just don't save the file?
I didn't know this would be a problem. What if you just don't worry about
it until you need to cut something else, and let that something else replace
it on the clipboard? Won't it just disappear then?
I'm sorry. I didn't know leaving something on the clipboard would cause a
problem. I do it all the time with no ill effects.

Mayrie,
That was partially successful. Now, it's stuck in the "paste" feature until
I put it somewhere. I tried to paste it in a new email form but it still
stayed stuck in the "paste" feature. How do I get it out of the paste
feature? I think I should have highlighted as you said and then pressed
"delete".
Help!! I can't use my cut and paste feature!

Hi Tim,
There are probably less clunky ways of doing this, but here's what I'd do:
Place your cursor at the top of the section that you don't want in the book.
Press shift+downarrow until all of the text that you want gone is
highlighted/selected
Try to highlight any page breaks that you want to get rid of as well.
Press control+x to cut the text.
All of the text that you don't want should be gone.
Save so you don't lose your changes!
Hope that helps!
Mayrie

A book I'm proofing has two pages that don't belong. There are only 173
pages in the book, but after page XXIII in the front matter, is page 248 and
a blank page! After that the Intro continues. How do I get rid of the two
pages? I'm using Word 2003.
