[mso] Another Weird Word Problem

Hi All, especially Word Gurus.
We print envelopes to a Pitney Bowes 790 printer.  The data for the
envelopes comes from a mail merge.  Because of our network, sometimes
it's easier with a small print job to copy merged envelopes document to
a new document and print locally.

Here's the problem.  We have a template of the envelope size,
alignments, etc. that we paste the copied envelope document to.  Because
the original document is the same dimensions and alignment, the paste
works and most of the time, the envelopes print just fine.  Sometimes
though we get a word.exe error.  The problem seems to be because of a
stray paragraph mark in the very last section of the pasted document.
The last section of the document is blank except for that stray
paragraph mark.  I've tried six ways to Sunday to get rid of that last
page to no avail.

This problem does not happen if we print the same document to our
Hewlett Packard 4300 printer.

Odd, no?

Any thoughts or advice appreciated.
