I would have thought this would be easy, but perhaps not in this case.
I have a table that's about 25 rows by 5 columns. I would like to split
it,say, at the 11th row to make a 10x5 and 15x5 table. Help says,
Click in a cell, or select multiple cells that you want to split.
1. Click in a cell, or select multiple cells that you want to split.
2. Under Table Tools, on the Layout tab, in the Merge group, click Split
Cells..
3. Enter the number of columns or rows that you want to split the
selected cells into.
This works well in this case. However, my table actually is big enough
that one row gets put on the next page. It seems to be a separate table.
I would really like the last 7 rows to appear with the lone row on the
next page. That is, I want 8 rows there. If I split as above, the last
7 rows go bounding to the top of the document. I've tried moving them
down, but it more or less makes a mess of things. What's going on and
how do I get the "new" table (8 rows) on the second page?
A perhaps related question is how do I add a new page after the first
table, so that I have 24 rows on one page, a blank page, and then 8 rows?
This may a general question in any case. I seem to have trouble making a
blank page after any page, tables or not.
