Control where a table is divided

When you work with a very long table, it must be divided where a page break occurs. By default, if a page break occurs within a large row, Microsoft Word allows a page break to divide the row between the two pages.

You can make adjustments to the table to make sure than the information appears as you want it to when the table spans multiple pages.

Prevent a table row from breaking across pages

1. Click the table.
2. On the Table menu, click Table Properties, and then click the Row tab.
3. Clear the Allow row to break across pages check box.

Force a table to break across pages at a particular row
