Delete blank page at master document end without ruining format?

[peedal]

I have finally successfully merged some separate documents into a master
document with subdocuments. However, I now have a blank page at the end and
when I try to delete it at the Section Break, it messes up all the formatting
of the section previous to it. Help!

Peedal:

Just as a paragraph mark contains the formatting for the text before it, a
section mark contains the formatting for the material before it. There is
also a "hidden" section break in the last paragraph of all documents.

When you delete a section mark, you cause the section formatting for the
next section to be applied to the material above the section mark you're
deleting.

Try positioning your insertion point in the last paragraph of the document
and making the section formatting identical to the section you want to
preserve. Then when you delete a section mark, the formatting should not
change.
