How to delete a page in word mail merge
In Microsoft Word, when you're working on a mail merge document, you may need to delete a page that's not part of the merge process. Here are the steps to delete a page in Word during a mail merge:
Method 1: Delete a page using the "Page Layout" tab
- Go to the "Page Layout" tab in the ribbon.
- Click on the "Delete" button in the "Page Setup" group.
- Select "Delete Page" from the dropdown menu.
- Confirm that you want to delete the page by clicking "Yes" in the dialog box.
Method 2: Delete a page using the "View" tab
- Go to the "View" tab in the ribbon.
- Click on the "Page Navigation" button in the "Document Views" group.
- Select "Delete Page" from the dropdown menu.
- Confirm that you want to delete the page by clicking "Yes" in the dialog box.
Method 3: Delete a page using the keyboard shortcut
- Press "Ctrl + Shift + 8" (Windows) or "Command + Shift + 8" (Mac) to toggle the "Show/Hide" button on the ribbon.

Important note: When you delete a page during a mail merge, it will not affect the merge process. The deleted page will be removed from the document, but the merge will continue as usual.
If you're having trouble deleting a page or if you're unsure about the consequences of deleting a page, it's always a good idea to save a copy of your document before making any changes.
