Thanks, Hélène,

But that box is already checked... defaults that way, I think. I even
tried
unchecking the box and the rechecking it again... no dice. I have to
split
the table manually to fit as many cells on one page as I can, then live
with
the white space on the previous page. Something here is different than
with
Office 2000.
