Default Word 2002 mail merge into a table

I have a 12 column table where I'm merging data from a data source. The data
in the columns are variable length so word wrap is on. In a perfect world 16
lines would fit on the page but because the comments column could be very
wordy, the table may overflow to the next page (and usually does). The
overflowing is good but when the page breaks after the 16 lines, I am losing
the 17 line and start printing the next page with the 18 line information. I
have page headers and footers but removing them did not solve the problem.
If the total merged data is 50 lines, I lose the 17 and 34 lines, this is
consistent.
