Thanks again, Suzanne. After some experimenting, I selected the entire
table
and used the (Word 200&) "Home/Paragraph" command and under "Line and page
breaks" deselected everything. The problem disappeared. I suspect the CV
author copied text into the table and brought some formatting with him

Check each paragraph in the top row, and you'll probably find that one is
formatted as "Page break before." Alternatively, it may be that all (or
quite a few) of the rows (or paragraphs in them) are formatted as "Keep
with
next." See

We prepared custom CVs required by a project and the CVs used Word
tables
to
hold some of the text.

The formatting of the original was fine. We circulated the CVs to
individuals to complete and one returned with a table mystery. CVs
prepared
by others were fine €“ they did not have this problem.

One section of the CV has some non-table text followed by a table that
breaks across several pages. This table insists on starting at the top
of
the
page and I cannot insert any text above it €“ if I do, it jumps to the
next
page. This is a nuisance as I would like to have a heading (in the body
of
the document, not in a header) at the top of the page. Somehow one guy
editing his CV messed up the formatting.

I would be grateful for any ideas.
