What is the setting that allows information in a row to flow into the next page?

Thanks in advance for any help you can lend. I use Microsoft Word 2010, and have a Microsoft Word template that once it is filled in, will be a few hundred pages. Similar to other templates written in Word, it is essentially one long table with questions provided in some rows, which are interleaved with empty rows, where I am to provide responses to the questions.



Unlike other templates written in Word, when entering information and the bottom of the page is reached, the information disappears at the bottom of the page. All other templates I have seen, as you enter information and run out of room on one page, the information just flows into the next page.

So the question is: what is the setting that I need to change that will allow information entered into one row of a table to flow into the next page, as needed (instead of having the information disappear at the bottom of the page)?

Thanks again, Sven

The rows have to be marked as not having fixed size and that the row can break across pages. It may well be that the person who created this did not want to allow answers to exceed a certain length. It may also be that this setting is accidental.

With any editing restrictions turned off, if you right-click in a row and pick properties or table properties and then row, you can change these settings.
