"Keep Lines Together" Has No Effect in Tables

• Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c
• Microsoft Word for Windows 95, versions 7.0, 7.0a

SYMPTOMS

In Word for Windows, Keep Lines Together formatting does not work for paragraphs within a table if "Allow Row to Break Across Pages" is also selected. (To locate the "Allow Row to Break Across Pages" option, choose Cell Height And Width from the Table menu.)

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Tables that were created in a Word for Windows 2.0 document and imported into Word 6.0 or later will not have this option selected by default. This was done by design to preserve the original pagination of the document. However, new documents created in Word 6.0 or later have this option turned on by default.
