Need a quick way to delete the current page in your document? Here's a single-line macro that will do the trick:
Sub DeletePage() ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\Page").Range.Delete End Sub
The macro uses a special system-defined bookmark to refer to the current page. Assign the macro to a shortcut key and you have a way to easily delete the current page—the one in which the insertion point is located. The macro bases its determination of a "page" on the current pagination of the document, which is affected by the printer driver you are using and other formatting characteristics of the document.
