Sorry, Word doesn't let you flow text in such a way that it skips a page. You will have to fake it by manually moving text to the following page.



At the bottom of page 42 in your example, first add a line break (Shift+Enter) to ensure that the text justifies, and then break the paragraph.

Thanks for your reply! Yes I am aware of that workaround, but I just thought there was a more clean and convenient way. I know a lot of colleagues here at the University would be really really grateful if such a feature was implemented. I hope developers from Microsoft will someday feel our pain and hear our plea! But thanks again.

Best regards,
Marc-Andre

You never know, but right now I doubt that this will be a new feature in Word (because Word isn't a page layout program).

Publisher, or any layout program for that matter, will let you do this. Of course, Publisher doesn't offer a way to create a TOC or index, so it isn't really an option for most people.
