    Thank you for bringing the obvious to light. When I’m engrossed in a doc and I don’t want to expend time/energy in looking for a solution, it’s great to be able
    to rely on the internet and people like yourself who recognize the need to provide quick and simple solutions.

    Is there a way to insert multiple pages in one go? I have a large document into which I need to insert 24 new pages about 2/3rds of the way through. Do I have to click NewPage, New Page, New Page, New Page etc, etc… 24 times???
    Thanks for any help.

    This is not working if special formatting was used on previous pages!! I am editing tri-fold flyer document and I need all my columns stay on the first two pages and I need to remove page #3 – once removed, first two pages totally lose formatting.
