Default Can my table span across two pages?

I have a table with four columns and I want to be able to present it on two
A4 pages as one table.

So that two of the columns would show up on one page and two on the other -
then I would put the two A4 pages together and the table has to match.

Creating two separate tables doesn't quite work, because the rows from one
table are different heights than the rows in the second table.

Does anyone know how to do what I need?

Ania,
Have you considered setting a fixed height for your rows in the table
properties? Table - table properties - row tab - top of the dialog - set
height.

I am just trying that now. But it is annoying and wastes a lot of space. Wish
there was a better solution.

If you want to mimic an "ordinary" table, I don't see how you could
avoid letting the height of the biggest cell determine the height for
the entire row (which is essentially what setting a fixed row height
does in this case).
