Finding/removing an "obascure" manual page break
WinXP, Word 2003.
I'm trying to find/remove an obscure manual page break in a document that I didn't create. The manual page break is not found by searching for "^m". It does not appear to be enabled by Format, Paragraph, Insert Page Break Before, at least not that I can find. It's not enabled by a Ctrl-Enter hard break that I can find. It occurs in a 6-column table at a point where the original row has been split into two rows for only the right-most two of the six colums. The existing document makes a page break at this row split, so that the original row is split across this page break. There is no reason for an automatic page break at this point. There is plenty of white space for the entire original row to be all on one page. So I assume that the page break must be some sort of manual page break. Any ideas? Thanks, Fred Holmes |

Is any paragraph in the breaking row set to "Keep with next"?

No, that's not it either.
I did manage to "solve" the problem by removing the split (into two rows of columns 5 & 6), by merging the appropriate cells, then isolating that row on a single page with lots of white space, and then re-making the splits and moving the correct content into the correct cells. While that "solved the problem" it was time consuming work. Would still love to figure out where the page break was "hidden" so I could just delete it. Thanks for your help.
