When formatting a document such as a resume, MS Word often inserts a large gap in the text--sometimes as much as half a page of blank space. When I try to delete the gap, moving the cursor from the continued text after the gap, it skips over the gap as if it's not even there, and deletes text from the previous point in the document before the gap. I can't "grab" the gap or highlight/delete the gap in any way. Ideas??

You can also turn on "Show all formatting marks." In Office 2007, it's under the round unlabeled menu button (not the normal rectangular ones), then "word options", then "Display". | |||||

If you are using a template it is most likely because the template is using a table with cells. You would need to click on the corner of the table and shrink it. | |||

Try to highlight the gap, and see if it is in fact, a cell of a table. If it is, delete that cell from the template and that should remove the issue. | |||

It is not clear to me if the gaps occur within or between lines. If the space is within lines it could be because you have Justify as your alignment? That will leave huge floods of white space for lines with few words. Space between paragraphs can be controlled for each paragraph style. | ||||
