How do I delete a blank page that's been added to the end of my document?

The problem is that you can't see the page break characters. There are
a number of ways to display them. The easiest to explain is to be in
Page Layout view, press the Paragraph marker in toolbar which toogles
Show all on/off. That will display the extra page or sectoin break.
when you can see it, delete it the ones you don't want. also see Menu:
Tools/Options Tab: View

The catch here is that the page isn't really blank. If it were, it wouldn't
exist. It just looks blank to you because you don't have nonprinting
characters displayed. Press Ctrl+* or click the Show/Hide ¶ button on the
Standard toolbar, and you will probably see at least one paragraph mark (¶)
and possible some spaces, tabs, etc. (To identify these characters, see
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Formatting/NonPrintChars.htm). Delete any
extra paragraph marks, and you'll probably lose the extra page.

If the previous page ends with a table, then Word will insist on having at
least one text paragraph (even if it's empty) after it at the end of the
document. That's because the last paragraph mark holds formatting
information for the entire document. So you can't remove that paragraph
mark, but you can hide it. Select just the paragraph mark and format it as
Hidden (Ctrl+Shift+H). Then when you hide NPC again, the page will disappear
(sometimes it suffices to format the font and/or line spacing to 1 point).

Dear User,

You can delete the blank page which appears in the last,
by placing your cursor at the last line of the previous
page and then start pressing "DELETE" button and after few
seconds your last blank page will be deleted, then save
the file.
