It probably is splitting across pages, but you do not realise it.

From the Tools menu, select Options and then go to the View tab and make
sure that "White space between pages (Print view only)" item is checked
under the Print and Web Layout options section of the dialog.

Hi,

Office XP.

I got a document with a long table which does not split automatically over
several pages. The tables is just displayed on one page with no top- and
bottom margin. In the table properties the property 'automatically split
to next page if necessary' is checked.

Why doesn't this table split and how can I fix this problem?

regards

Rod
