Page Break in Office 2010 table creates whole new page, table row are no longer connected

I hope that I can describe this adequately.  I am typing a Word document that consists of text inside table rows.  When the final row exceeds the bottom margin of the page, it moves over to a new page.  (Also, sometimes to make the information hang together better, I insert a Page Break.)  Problem is, with either option that row become the only one on the new page and the following rows are no longer "connected"  to that row.  Paragraph marks are inserted, and I can't seem to delete them to bring the table all back together.  Any suggestions?

Inserting a manual page break splits the table. Heading rows do not repeat, and the table cannot be selected as a single table. Formatting the row as "Page break before" (on the Line and Page Breaks tab of the Paragraph dialog) will break the table to a  new page without splitting it.       

 

To correct the existing situation, you'll need to delete the page break. You should then be able to delete any text paragraph that still splits the table.
