Delete second page from all the word docs in a folder

[Prascena]

Hello,

I have 400 word documents (.docx) in a folder. In all the 400 documents, second sheet is blank. I want to delete the second sheet from all of them. Is there any macro to do this?



Thank you.

The code for that really depends on what is causing the second page to be blank - which you haven't told us about. It could be caused by any one or more of:
• manual page breaks;
• section breaks;
• paragraph 'page break before' formatting; and/or
• empty paragraphs on the second page.

Hello, thank you for your reply.

I checked and it is a section break.

Can you help with this? Thank you.

There would need to be more than just a single Section break. Moreover, indiscriminately deleting Section breaks can seriously mess up a document's layout.

Without actually seeing the problem document, it can be difficult for anyone to craft an effective solution for the issue. Can you attach a document to a post with some representative data (delete anything sensitive)? You do this via the paperclip symbol on the 'Go Advanced' tab at the bottom of this screen.
