paragraph continuity
Its word 2007.
lets say i am writing an essay on a page and im close to the end of that page. if the page has only few lines left before that edge of the lower margin and if im writing a "long" sentence that contains 4 lines (for example) what happens is that word2007 never fills all the left lines below with my sentence but It breaks the sentence in a horrible way that makes no sense!! IT moves to continue typing on next page white there are one or two lines left empty at the bottom of the former page?! the same silly thing happen when im writing a paragraph 4 lines long at the bottom of a page that have less than 4 lines left (3, 2 or 1 line) when i start typing the forth line it JUMPS to the next page and moves the whole paragraph to the other page and leave the former page with three empty ugly lines at the bottom :-( is there any settings that make word not to worship the idea that paragrahs must be physically continueuos ( on one page) and not to leave any empty line for that sake ?! please help |

I can't speak specifically to Word2007, but it sounds like you have
Widow and Orphan Control turned on, In Word2003, this was on the second tab of Format | Paragraph, which I gather is handled differently in 2007. W & O C is so that you'll never have just the first line of a paragraph at the bottom of a page, or just the last line of a paragraph at the top of a page, and it's the default setting; it's usually what you want. But it does get annoying when typing in what used to be called Print View (in Normal View, you wouldn't notice it). Just uncheck the box (wherever they keep it now), and you won't get a new page until you've filled up the old one.

Well, MVP is actually Most Valuable Professional, so you'd be a Somewhat
Valuable Professional. I saw your answer, which is the "give the man a fish" answer, which in this case was obviously satisfactory and sufficient. Mine is the "teach a man to fish" answer, which may well be surplus to requirements. g -- Suzanne S.
