Please tell me how to delete blank pages in my report. I have several and
don't know how they got there.
 
It is probably designed wider than the width of the paper
using you present margins. Try reducing the margins or
decreasing the width/length of the report in design mode.

You have one or more controls that is wider than the margins of your report.
Look for lines and boxes (the biggest culprits) and either reduce their size
or remove them. The other option is to try to widen the margins of your
report from the default 1". The blank pages are displaying the runover from
those boxes and probably appear on every other page.

The usual cause of blank pages in a report is that the combined width
of the report plus the width of the left and right margins is greater
than the width of the paper.
Either make the width of the report shorter or decrease the width of
the left and right margins, or both.

If you can't drag the right edge of the report towards the left you
probably have a control (usually a line) extending to the current
right position. It can be just at the extreme top or bottom of a
section which means it is going to be hard to see in Design View.
Use the Object drop-down control to highlight each line in turn until
you find the culprit. Reposition it or make it shorter, then drag the
right edge to the wanted size.

Another possible cause is the length of the report is too long. Make
the Top and Bottom margins smaller and/or make the length of the
report
shorter.
