In Word Tables, paragraphs that are set to "keep with next" (para) do not always. Tables sometimes break after only half a page for no good reason. It is *not* because I have all the table text set to "keep with next", because I don't.

Example: (lines represent new rows; there are two columns in the table each with the same layout)


-------------------
Heading Text - set to "keep with next"
-------------------
Body Text
-------------------
Heading Text - set to "keep with next"
(Page breaks here, leaving half a page of white space)
-------------------
Text (on new page, but should be on previous)
(Page break *should* go here)
-------------------
Heading Text - set to "keep with next"
-------------------
Text
etc.

(I use two-column tables as an easy way to get two columns of text on the page, nicely lined up)

This bug has existed through several revisions to Word and is still present in Word 2002.

Does anyone know how to force the page break to go where it should in this instance?
