The "Allow rows to break" setting applies only to breaks within the rows; it
does not control breaks between rows, which, as you've discovered, can be
prevented using the "Keep with next" setting; for more, see

Hello,
I am using Office 2003. When I deselect 'allow rows to break across pages'
my tables still break. I have to select the rows again and then select
'keep
with next' under paragraph settings. Why isn't the tables properties
working?
Thanks,
Vickie
