I’m using tables in Writer documents; in some of the files tables flow across pages, while in other files they don’t, and I don’t know how to make them flow across pages. I’m not using styles, and I’m not tinkering with the individual cells (except for forcing some references [like “2:14”] to appear as text). Frankly, I don’t know how to troubleshoot the problem, so I’m adding links to two of the files in the hope that someone with more and/or deeper experience can recognize the difference between them and let me know how to correct the problem.

This file has tables that flow:

This file has tables that don’t flow:

If someone can show me the difference betwee the two files’ tables, I would greatly appreciate it,

Thank you.
