Delete a stubborn page break in Word

Trying to delete a page break in a word document but Word just ignores the action.

Check that you have Track Changes enabled. You can’t delete page (or column) breaks when Track Changes is on.

If you need to delete a page break, turn off Track Changes, delete the break (make sure you’re in Normal view), and enable Track Changes again.

HINT:
To quickly disable and enable Track Changes, in Word 2003 double-click the TRK section in the Status bar or in Word 2007 turn on Track Changes in the Status bar and click to turn on or off.

The shortcut is [Ctrl]+[Shift]+E for all versions of Word.
