Hi Jill:

I forgot to tell you that once you delete the extra pages you probably should 
save the file as kes in case the problem of additional pages persists.

  Hi Jill,
  If Grace's suggestion doesn't work, maybe you could try deleting smaller 
chunks of the blank pages at a time. Start with just a few, and if that causes 
a crash you'll know there's a real problem with the file. If deleting 10 pages 
or so together works, try 50, then 100, and so on. The way Kurzweil deals with 
text makes each page a separate unit which has to be deleted separately by the 
program, although not by the user. So deleting 600 pages at once is going to 
take a while even when the pages are blank and even if you have a fast 
computer. After you press delete, do you hear a lot of noise from your hard 
drive? If so, the procedure is working.
  Hth,
  Kellie

  P.S. If none of these suggestions work and your Kurzweil is really crashing 
because of this file, we can help you send it to Stephen Baum from Kurzweil and 
he can figure out what's going on with it.
