What you are seeing is probably caused by the paragraph mark that follows
each table (you can see paragraph marks and other nonprinting marks by
pressing Ctrl+Shift+8).
Format the paragraph mark following the table as 1 pt font size, 1 pt line
spacing, and zero spacing before and after; then it should fit on the
previous page. If this doesn't help, also format it as hidden text.

I have a Word document with 4 separate tables. There is a paragraph break
before the next table begins. The second table can begin on the bottom
half
of the page below the first table. However Word pushes the second table to
a
new page. I have the Table Properties / Row / checked to Allow Row to
Break
Across Pages, in case the first row of the second table is too long to fit
on
the page. Since they are separate tables I don't think this should be
relevant. Urgent advise would be appreciated.
