Word table format question 2

[GhostWolf]

I have a Word document containing multiple tables, some of which span multiple pages. It gets ugly when cells span page boundaries, (row begins on one page and ends on the next).

Is there a way to format a table so that it automatically, (and correctly!!), inserts a page break between cells?

Hi GhostWolf,

Use Table|Table Properties|Row and uncheck the 'allow row to break across pages' option.

Alternatively, if each cell contains only one paragraph, you could use Format|Paragraph|Line and Page Breaks, and check the 'Keep lines together' option

Cheers

Be a little careful with unchecking "Keep lines together" as it can cause unwanted HUGE spaces between rows.

macropod: Thank you. It works perfectly.

Since the cells contain addresses, (3-5 lines), I think I'll stay away from the paragraph option for now. (Thanks for the warning, fumei).
