Default Floating figure causes unwanted page breaks

Hi,

I have a rather large (~60% of a page length) figure inserted into a Word 2007 document inside a floating text box that has top/bottom wrapping. The text box is positioned bottom/centered with the paragraph it is anchored to above it at the top of the page. The problem is that an automatic page break is inserted between the anchor paragraph and the preceding paragraph, leaving 3/4 of the previous page blank so that it looks like this:

---------------------
paragraph




---------------------
anchor paragraph

figure
---------------------

"Move object with text" and "Lock anchor" are both unchecked for the text box containing the figure. All I want if for the text to seamlessly wrap around the figure with no forced page breaks. Thanks for any advice
