continues on behind the next page..

select all rows in the table, and then click Table Table Properties. Open
the Row tab, and clear the "Allow row to break across pages" check box. Click
OK, and you're done. (The entire last row will appear on the next page).

Make sure that the table is not wrapped (on the Table tab of Table
Properties, set wrapping to None). Or, if you need it to be wrapped, make
sure that "Don't break wrapped tables across pages" is not checked on the
Compatibility tab of Tools | Options. Also, if the table is in a text box or
frame, it cannot be longer than one page.
