Formating Issues

[Maurice]

I have a Publisher 2003 Brochure in progress. I only need the first page of
this two page document. I can find no way to save only the first page of
this work. Additionally, I've inserted a text box for a list of items and
want to divide it into two columns. Need some guidance on how this would be
done. Much thanks for any assistance.

Go to page two, Edit, delete page. Save with a new name if you want both files.

Right-click the text box, click format text box, Text Box tab, columns button.

Much thanks tor the timely reply. Regrettably, When on the second page, the
edit option does not offer a 'delete page' even when the double caret
exposes all of the drop down options. Additionally, I have tried removing
all of the text boxes and type of the second page only to find that that it
remains.

Do you see Page tabs down on the status bar? If so, right click on the page
2 tab and delete.

Where did you get the brochure template? I cannot understand not being able to
delete the second page? Did Rob's solution work? You can copy the brochure and
paste to a new instance of Publisher. Make note of the color scheme, many times
it will change when you paste.

All:

Just realized a gross error on my part for which an apology is owed to
all who contributed to the solution of this issue. This was a project that
originated in Publisher 2003. I either copied the elements into word or
found the same publication in word. I would ask, however, if the same
suggested solutions would work for the word document. Your valuable advice
is still sought

When you fill a page with text or graphics, Microsoft Office Word inserts an
automatic page break and starts a new page. However, you can manually add pages
or delete pages by adding page breaks or deleting page breaks. You can also add
a cover page at the beginning of your document.

The recommendation to insert a page break did remove the text and graphics
from the document. The second page, however, still exists. I have reviewed
every option in the 'edit' selection in the toolbar. The list is:

-undo cut
-repeat cut
-cut
-copy
-Office Clipboard
-Paste
-Paste Special
-Paste as Hyperlink
-Clear
-Select All
-Find
-Replace
-Go to
-Reconvert
-Links
-Object

I fully respect the collective wisdom of all who have shared their
knowledge but I simply cannot find 'delete page' on edit or any other portion
of the toolbar. The cursor can be placed at the upper left corner of the
newly blank page but holding the delete key does not remove page two. I have
also tried to drag the mouse over the contents of page one so to paste it
into a new word document.
