How do I specify the number of lines for widow/orphan control?

In other programs (e.g. OpenOffice.org Writer, FrameMaker) you can specify
the number of lines relevant for widow and orphan control. Can you do this in
Word?

Nope. It's all or nothing: two lines for Widow/Orphan control, the entire
paragraph for "Keep lines together"--nothing like WordPerfect's Block
Protect.
