Default Tables won't break across pages.

I've got a series of Word documents that are composed largely of tables...
this for annotation in what becomes a wide margin. Under Word in Office 2000
I never had a problem, except that Widow/Orphan control didn't seem to work
in tables. No big deal, this could be managed manually.

But now, using Word for Office 2003/XP, I cannot get a table to break across
page transitions. Only 'complete' table cells can be accommodated on a page,
otherwise contiguous cells break apart and slip to the next page, leaving a
big white space on the previous one.

Am I missing something? I'm almost ready to reinstall Office 2000!
