I know this will sound stupid but I can't get a blank page at the end of a word document deleted. Can someone please suggest a solution because nothing I do seems to have any effect. I know it will be something really simple and I will kick myself when I find out. Thanks in anticipation.

Click just after the last word in the document to place your cursor there. Then press the Del key - note Del, not backspace - until the blank page disappears and the cursor is at the very end of your document. Job done ...

go to the last page and press backspace until the page is deleted
This is quite easy.
Look for the symbol that looks like a capital P (but it looks backwards)
These will show up on your page, go to the bottom of the last page, and go in front of the very last "P" and press back arrow to delete it, do this until it completely deletes the page you want to get rid of, and then save your document.
Go to the bottom of the last page with writing on it and insert a page break.
Assuming that there is absolutely nothing on it other than the cursor at the top of the blank page, all I do is press delete, the cursor goes to the end of the previous page and the blank page disappears.

I'm sure you may have tried that already, but it's all I can think of at the moment.
ditto the winner!

Thanks everyone I will go and give it another try.
rivel may not have the "backward Ps" showing. I do not usually have them showing.

There is a border on the page I want to delete.
Also I can't see a backwards P anywhere.
