Keeping Rows Together on Page
Forgive what seems like it should be a simple question but that I cannot
figure out. I cannot seem to get the 'Allow row to break accross pages' to work properly (Word 2002). My rows each break accross a page individually, regardless of whether the box is checked or not. I understand that the following info. may (or may not) be pertinent: Text wrapping for the table is set to None. The table is not in a frame. When I select the whole table, the FormatParagraph the 'Keep with Next' option is checked - if I uncheck it, hit Ok, and return to the dialog box, it is checked again. However, the same option is unchecked if I open the same dialog box with the cursor in any individual cell in the table (or outside the table altogether). Thanks for any help you can offer. |

Keeping Rows Together on Page
How this is done is explained at
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/tblsfldsfm...bleon1page.htm. Note, however, that if a table row has a fixed height specified (on the Row tab of TableTable Properties), "Allow row to break across pages" will act as if it was cleared. In other words, a fixed-height row will either move to the following page or (if its height exceeds that of the page) disappear into the bottom margin. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "VB2" wrote in message ...

Thank you for your reply. I had read this before, however, for whatever
reason, when I looked at it this time I noticed the part about not selecting the last row. Clearly, it makes all the difference. Thanks.
