Default Row won't break over pages

I'm using WD2003, and I've spent a while reading many of the Word Table forum
Q&A and Suzanne Barnhill's articles on page breaking, but I have a table that
does not seem to believe her. Please would someone suggest another area to
look at?

It started as a form with a table split into five 3-column rows for
Objectives, Dates, and the Achievements of those objectives. If you put an
entry into an Achievement cell that is long enough to deepen the row to just
over the available height on the page, the row suddenly bounces to a new page
leaving previous rows behind. If you really pile on the text it stays on that
new page and the extra text disappears into the page gap. Removing text
doesn't put it back until it's nearly all erased.

You can see all text in Normal View, but not in Print Layout View.

Table Properties Table Wrapping = None;
Table Properties Row Allow row to break checked, Specify height not
checked;
Paragraph format Line & Page Breaks only Widow/Orphan checked;
File Type = Word document (not WD97 etc, I've been caught like that before!).
