remove a split in a table

[Mer]

I am in word and a table has been created, inserted and has been split, to
show on two pages (not a page break). I believe just the command "Split
table".
However, due to deletions and resizing the document ------ I need to join
the table back together as one whole table. Cannot seem to do it. How to
rejoin a split table ??????????????????? HELPP!

All that Table-->Split table does is insert a paragraph return. Just delete
the paragraph return. My bet is, however, that someone has that first row in
the "second" table set to "Page Break Before" under Format-->Paragraph -OR-
they have used "Keep with Next" settings under Format-->Paragraph on SOME of
the rows. I'd select the entire table (Table-->Select Table) and then
Format-->Paragraph, Line and page breaks tab, and uncheck either of those
items.

It also won't be possible to join the tables if the top row of the second
one has been formatted as a heading row, or if either of the tables has
become wrapped.
