Default Table Breaks

I have posted a problem on Page layout group that should
have been put on this group but just to update.
I have created a template that is a table. When I come to
add information into cells low down in the table Word
creates a "page break" on the first page that leaves
about half of the first page blank. My template does have
tables within tables but I have checked all of my tables
to ensure that they are designated to allow rows to break
across the page. Can there be another reason for this to
happen.
if you go back an add further information to the top half
of the table the blank area fills up it does not force
more onto the second page.
Sorry this is confusing, even about which group to post
this to. Thanks in advance

Default Table Breaks

I have a similar problem. I created a table and it seems
like WOrd created a page break at the beginning of it so
that the table jumps to the next page leaving only the
Table label I created on the first page. I can't figure
out how to get rid of this created page break.

Default Table Breaks

Check all the paragraphs in every row to make sure they're not formatted as
"Keep with next."

Default Table Breaks

that works if you want to keep your rows together, ie -
all contents of a row will appear on the same page and
the table can be split across two pages.

what if you're not bothered by splitting the contents of
a row across two pages. is it possible to split your
table across two pages in the middle of a row, so that
some of the row's contents are on page1 and the remaining
contents are on page2?

cheers in advance

Default Table Breaks

As long as you have enable "Allow rows to break across pages" for all rows
in the table, this is the effect you will get.
