How to delete the last page in Word 2010

I am sure the question has been asked many times but I am still not able to delete the last page.

What I have tried: Pressed Control+Shift+8 to get paragraph marks and have tried deleting the last paragraph mark but to no avail.

Need some guidance on this..

Use Ctrl+Shift+8 to show empty paragraph markers and verify that there are no empty paragraphs on the last page of your document. If there are, then place your cursor at the end of your final desired page and hold down the delete key until the last (blank) page goes away.

If you have a table at the very end of your document, Word insists on forcing a blank paragraph after tables. You cannot (to the best of my knowledge) remove this paragraph but you can modify it to incredibly small font and line heights to try forcing it to fit on the last desired page. Technically you can hide this empty paragraph using Ctrl+Shift+H but it doesn't always take, it won't completely disappear until you once again hide paragraph marks.

If that doesn't work, verify that you do not have more than one section. Under "Page Layout" go to "Page Setup" options and see if your "Section Start: New Page" has changed to Odd or Even page. If it has, you'll need to carefully work this out in order to not lose formatting. I cannot give specifics without knowing the existing formatting of your document.

Finally, if you are getting a blank page at the end of every document you print and have exhausted all other explanations, check the printer Properties to see whether there is a “separator page” option that has been enabled.

For documents that have a table at the end, hiding the final paragraph marker offers some advantages over formatting it with a tiny point size. Although you cannot delete the blank paragraph that follows it, if you hide the paragraph marker itself by selecting it (to select it, position your cursor in the empty paragraph, then hold your Shift key and press your right arrow once), then selecting "Hidden" under the font properties, then at least the last page won't print. And unless your display settings in Word are set to display hidden text, it will disappear from your screen also.

Formatting it with a tiny point size doesn't guarantee that the final page won't print. It may be the case, but isn't always, that formatting it with a tiny point size will allow it to fit on the prior page, but if the table goes all the way to the margin, there may not be room for it, and so the final page will continue to print.
