I appreciate your help, but I'm sorry, but I have no idea what you're saying.
"Opened a blank screen" = "Created a new document using Ctrl-N or File>New?"


Are these instructions for me to follow, or your interpretation of my problem? I had a formatted document, and I wanted to insert a second page at the end of my formatted document, so I could add or copy text from a second document, creating a two page document. But I could not create a second page to my original document. Please see my response to Macropod, which contains a representation of my initial document. Thanks again for any help.
