Hi Craig,
The problem you are experiencing is usually caused by the Orphan Rows
setting in the table or the Keep With setting in the paragraph style holding
the table marker.
To fix this, go to the Orphan Rows field in the table designer (Table >
Table Designer > Orphan Rows) and enter '2' (I usually allow 2 orphan rows
but you can set this where you like). If this doesn't fix the problem, click
in the paragraph holding the table marker (usually the line above the table)
and then check out the Keep With setting in the paragraph style (Format >
Paragraph Designer > Pagination > Keep With). Make certain both check boxes
are clear.
From what you have said, it is probably the paragraph setting causing the
problem but both should be looked at.
IHTH
Cheers,
Bruce Ashley
