Long tables in 2 pages
Hi,
I have a problem with tables in word documents. When I create a table and the table is very long, it is splitted and continues in the next page. The problem is that the splitting is done not at the end of the page, fitting the last possible row, but in the middle of the table, what leaves then half a page empty. How can I choose where to split the table? I tried in Table properties but I could not find anything. If someone knows how to do this I really appreciate if he/she could help me. Thanks. -- Pere |

You don't say which versin of Word this is... in Table Properties - Row tab,
try toggling "Allow row to break across pages" to see if one or the other gives you the desired effect. Also, look in Tools - Options - Compatibility. There are a number of different table-related settings, some of which can affect how rows are broken/presented. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Please respond in the newsgroups so everyone can follow along. http://www.herbtyson.com "Pere Godia" wrote in message ...

It can sometimes be caused by paragraph
formatting...either "keep with next" or "page break" before. -----Original Message----- You don't say which versin of Word this is... in Table Properties - Row tab, try toggling "Allow row to break across pages" to see if one or the other gives you the desired effect.

Thanks Suzanne, Sally and Herb,
The problem was in "Keep with next" option, which was checked in for each table. Now I removed it and it work ok. Thanks to all, Pere "Suzanne S.
