Using a Gmail address for the forum account? Read this.

Re: Delete blank pages
Set the blank paragraph below the table to font size 2 (the minimum).
Or set the font properties of that blank paragraph to hidden to hide it completely.

Re: Text produced using OOW does not display using Microsoft WORD
How do you transfer the text exactly? From your machine to the communal one, there must something.
The best would be to export your file as a PDF and then print that file on the communal machine.

Are you sure that the page is not configured with 3 columns?
The page must be 1 column and then you add a section with 3 columns.

Re: Split large book file into 2 odt files
If there is a page break between the 2 halves, then deleting the first half should not impact the second one. Except for page numbering but it can be fixed with the page style setting.
Try and tell us what remains to be fixed. Do that on a copy of your book of course.

By showing that you don't even remember your own questions and taking no care of where you post, you just make a fool of yourself.
The best way to prevent both of us from wasting more time (despite my providing an answer that was satisfying a couple of years ago) is to ban you.
