Default Keeping Rows Together on Page

I'm glad you got it sorted!

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.

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.

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.
