I have a mailmerge situation where I have a table with a variable number of
rows that need to be printed on a single page. Furthermore, when a
particular field in the table row changes, I want to skip to a new page and
start all over.

Sounds like you are probably trying to perform a "multiple items per
condition (=key field)" mailmerge which Word does not really have the
ability to do:

See the "Group Multiple items for a single condition" item on fellow MVP

Or take a look at the following Knowledge Base Article
