Line number in Table

[JWS315]

I am creating text from an Access database and placing it into a Word table
and need to keep track of the current line number so that if the text is less
than a full page I can set the row to not break across the page otherwise I
want to allow the row to break and have the text visible on the next page.
If there is too much text and I leave the row to not break then not all the
text is visible.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

If the text is less than a full page, what would make the row break? Seems
to me that you could just leave the rows set so that they can break across
the page.

I am using nested tables, I have 3 tables and I want them to stay together
because each table has different formating of the text. The text in the
document is variable for each set of nested tables so on 1 page I may be able
to get 2 sets on the page while on another page I can get 4 sets but I don't
want a set to break across the page unless the inner most text table exceeds
a full page of text.

How does word keep count of the line number that it displays in the status
bar at the bottom of the page?

Thanks
Jerry
