Default Removing a manual page break in large table

I have a very large table and I inserted a manual page break (Ctrl + enter).
I now have a single row of the table showing on a page. How do I get rid of
the page break so that I do not have this orphaned row.

Thanks for your help.

Select the page break and delete it.

Thank you for your reply. This does not seem to be a normal page break that
can be selected. It does not show as a normal page break. In Normal view it
shows as a dotted line immediately above the row that is orphaned. I cannot
select this. Any suggestions.

In that case, it's a soft page break rather than a manual page break.
Examine the paragraphs in the first row on the next page for "Page break
before" formatting (or it may be that this and subsequent rows/paragraphs
are formatted as "Keep with next").
