Default Continuous Rows in tables

I have a pre-existing document that has one large table with several rows in
it. As I write my data in it, it generally will wrap to the next page when
needed, creating a continuous looking document and everything is fine.
However, sometimes, the page breaks after the row and I end up with a
remaining blank page. I do not know why it does this randomly. When I turn on
the outline to view everything, there is nothing unusual happening that I can
see. Does anyone know what is going on and how to fix it?

Default Continuous Rows in tables

Hi Kathy,

Is this the last row in the table? If so, bear in mind that there'll be a paragraph mark after the table, and that could be getting
forced to the next page. If you size the table so that it's height is at least 1pt less than the height between the margins and
format the
trailing paragraph with no leading/trailing spaces and with a 1pt font, the empty last page should disappear.

If it's not the last row, check the paragraph formatting for the next row and make sure none of them is formatted as 'keep with
next'. Also check the table properties to see whether the next row is formatted to allow splitting across pages.

Cheers
