This little quirk has been annoying me for some time and maybe there is a way round it!

If I have a table which ends at the bottom of a page (or at least so close that there isn't enough room for a normal text line following it) a new page follows the table even though there is nothing on it.

I assume this is caused by the fact that the table has a hard return after it but I don't have the option (as far as I can see) of getting rid of it.

Does anyone have any way round this. It has happened in every version of Word I've come across.
