I've got a document where the table refuses to cross over to a new page.
Instead, it just disappears off the bottom of the page. I've created
hundreds of large tables and I've never seen this before. Any suggestions?

Select the table, go to Table | Table Properties and make sure that text
wrapping is set to None.

That did the trick. Thanks. The next obvious question is, why did the text
wrapping turn on when its never been on before?

Unfortunately I don't know the answer to that question. I've run into enough
problem and that was the solution. Not sure why that happens.

Whenever you use the table handle to move the table, the wrapping is changed
to Around. If you are accustomed to using drag-and-drop editing, it may be
natural to you to move the table this way (instead of using Cut and Paste),
and if you are aware of this gotcha and careful to change the wrapping back
to None after moving, you'll be okay.

But even if you don't move the table intentionally, if you work in Print
Layout view, it is very easy, if you click on the table handle to select the
table, to accidentally nudge it slightly, which causes it to become wrapped.
For this reason it is often safer to work with tables in Normal view.
