Tables in Word

L

Leif

Hi,

I have a problem or rather a question about tables in Word. I want the text
in a cell to stay together on one page. However Word breakes the table
within the cell. If I make a Table Heading that repeats on a new page I
can´t make a manual break, for this stops the repeating of Heading Rows.
Is there a way to stop Word from breaking within the cell?

Regards
Leif

Change the properties on the Table to prevent Rows breaking
across a page. Exactly /where/ this setting is depends on your
version of Word.

Select the row(s) (or the entire table), go to Table menu > Table
Properties, on the Row tab find the checkbox for "Allow row to break
across pages" and UNcheck it. With this setting, rows that have too
much content to fit on the page will be bumped to the next page.

(Note: if you have merged cells vertically, the setting will not work
for those rows.)
