When I insert a table the text after in moves to the next page

[Boomdang]

I would be grateful for any help! I am using styles formatting and am doing
a report. When I insert a table the text moves to the next page, what ever I
do. It is driving me mad! I can't find a style option for tables and can't
seem to save the table as a new style

Adding new contents would move existing contents down the page, or even to
the next page if there isn't room on the current page...

Display nonprinting marks, for example by pressing Ctrl+Shift+8 (acts as a
toggle). Are there any blank paragraphs (¶) on the page? If so, remove them.
Your text paragraphs should remain on the page (assuming that they "fit").
Other factors of importance are the settings for the text, such as "Keep
with next" and "Keep lines together" (Paragraph dialog box).

Table styles are supported, in Word 2002 and later, but you may not find
them very useful; see

Thanks Stefan

The problem wasn't not enough space on the page!! Do know enough to work
out if that was the issue. But I didn't know about the keep lines together
etc options and keep with next has worked!!! Yeah! Much appreciated!!
