splitting tables and moving part to the preceding page automaticall

Hello,

 

I am working with tables.  I need for the tables to split automatically continuously.  Does anyone know how to do that?

 

thanks

    You can control if individual table rows are split between pages or not (Table properties dialog box). Also, you can force a new page by applying "Page break before" formatting to a whole table row. For more, see http://wordfaqs.ssbarnhill.com/ControlPgBrksInTables.htm.

     

    Note that if you truly want to split the table, that is, create two tables out of one, there is a command for that on the contextual ribbon tab for tables.
