In MS 2002/XP I have a 3 column table extending over a 15
page doc, with the 3rd column holding a lot of text,
sometimes over a page long. It refuses to break to the
next page. I have the "Allow rows to break across page"
box checked, and the table and styles have "keep with
next" unchecked. (I never had a problem fixing row break
issues in Word 2000.) Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Sam

Are "Keep lines together" and "Page break before" also cleared (in
Format>Paragraph)?

"Keep lines together" has no effect in a table, but "Page break before"
would definitely cause problems.
