Default Section Break Inserts an Extra Blank Page


I have a problem in which Word is inserting an extra blank page when I put in a section break. It doesn't matter whether I choose Section Break--Next Page or Section Break--Continuous. Any ideas?

No need to respond--I figured this one out.

I just had a "page break before" in the formatting of a style. All good now.

Also, note that if you are restarting page numbering in the new section, Word may add an extra "filler" page, because it always tries to put odd page numbers on the odd/right-hand page.
