Not my day :-(

1. If I have a manual page break immediately before a table of, say, contents, how do I delete it? The only way I've found is to delete and recreate the ToC. Playing with 'edit paragraph style' and the text flow for the table doesn't do a lot.

2. If I've inserted a manual page break, how do I change its settings - in particular the page number for the next page? The only way I've found is to delete and recreate it -- but this is irritating, falls foul of (1) above and assumes one can remember its properties from when it was created (afaict there's no way to read them once it exists).
These two probably have the same answer - in OOo the manual page break is a paragraph attribute.

Put the cursor somewhere in (e.g. at the start of) the first paragraph on the page. Now go to Format - Paragraph and go to the Text Flow tab in the dialog. There you will find the Breaks section.

For your first question, I think unchecking the Insert box will do what you want.

For question (2), check the With Page Style box (the Insert box should already be checked), then select the page number that you want. You can change the page style here as well if you want to.

You can always see the current page number in the status bar.
