I have a mail merge document in which the fields are arranged in
complex table to creat something of a form. I use a directory styl
merge document to print several records on one page using the tabl
format.

Typically I can fit 2 tables (ie two records) on one standard page
Despite setting all my row properties in the template document not t
break rows across pages, they still do. I always get a third table tha
I have to manually enter 3 or 4 blank carriage returns to bump it to th
next page.

The tables are separated in the template by two breaks.

What can I do to ensure that the tables don't break across pages

Format every row of the table except the last as "Keep with next."
