Thank you very much.
No probs!
But I was not clear in my question.
Oh, I suspect you were.
In my table I like to have a row on the next page, while there is still room on the page left and without splitting the table. Is that possible?
I don't see any way to do that. The help text says that the "Allow table to split across pages and columns" option "[a]llows a page break or column break between the rows of a table", but I suspect that refers to a natural and necessary break, not to a manual break.
But the big question is why are you insisting on not using the obvious technique of splitting the table? There seems no difference in appearance between a single table and separate tables except for any borders, and surely you wouldn't want borders spanning the unused part of the first page anyway? Separate tables would also mean that adjustments to column widths would apply separately, which might increase work very slightly. You can add extra rows at the bottom of the first table as easily as you could add them between existing rows of a single table, of course.
I always think of question like this as being rather like "How do I turn right in my car without using the steering wheel?". The steering wheel is provided for the purpose, so why not use it?
