Dear Jill,
Always with love,
Obviously I don't validate with word; otherwise I would know the answer. Do I take it that there is no command to delete page?

Dear Jill and Everyone,
Yes, I'm validating the book and the map didn't scan though the caption did. In place of the map are a few words which I deleted, but the drawings of connected rectangles which are empty and take up most of the page won't go away.
The book has another map and many pages of illustrations which the scanning equipment seemed to handle perfectly. It preserved the captions, but didn't register the illustrations at all. The illustrated pages were very short, with just the captions and no wasted, empty space.
The book is a delight. It just has that one quirky page.
I'm just working at another book until I solve this. I did get the idea to try to highlight the rectangles, but they wouldn't highlight so I'm still stalled.
Since I don't scan books, I don't know how the machines react to the ins and outs of pages. It seemed that those boxes might be translated in to weird characters if I left them on the page. I was attempting to create a blank page for that map.
Thank you for giving my problem some thought.
Always With Love,
Lissi

If you're validating this book, I don't understand why the map is even there assuming that's what it is. The submitter couldn't have gotten a decent scan for such a page either.

Dear Volunteers,
Another day and another computer quandry. A scanner turned a map into a page full of variously sized, connected, mostly empty,rectangles with a few words sprinkled within. I was able to delete the words, but can't get rid of the rectangles which jaws describes as things like,
uniform table one, column 4
-
row 7 of 7
last cell in table pressing tab here will add another row to this table
-
end of row marker
-
nonuniform table, table one end of row marker
When I press backspace or control backspace, I get a thunky bell tone, which to my mind is the computer saying no.
I'm using windows XP, Jaws 6.0, and an RTF file with microsoft word.
Thank you for any help you can give me. Meanwhile, I'm happy to have 4 other wonderful books to work on.
Always counting and with love,
Lissi
