Problem with keeping lines together

[tshad]

In my file (Word 2007), I can normally keep lines together by checking the
Window/Orphan control, Keep with next and Keep Lines together.

At some point in my file, it quits working.

I have bulleted items that normally would stay together and have the above
items checked in the Line and Page Breaks tab of Paragraph. But later in
the file it quits working event if I uncheck them and recheck them.

Not sure what is cause this.

If you're trying to use "Keep lines together" to keep bullet points
together, it won't work. KLT is for the lines in a single paragraph. To keep
paragraphs together, you need to use "Keep with next." And you can't use KWN
for more than a page before something has to give.

I use all the choices for the lines and there are only about 5 or 6 at a
time. If I copy them and move them to another page, the work fine.

I also noticed that the checkmarks are green while on the page where it
doesn't work the checkmarks are black. Not sure if that is important or
not.

Thanks,
