If this is a repeat of a thread I can't find, please delete. I've searched with no success. The only words I can think of to describe what I want is "spill over". There's probably some better way to describe what I need... 

I am working on a chapter describing all of the various buttons in our program, and there are many. I've created a table that essentially separates a .jpg of each button in the skinny left-hand column from it's description in the wider right-hand column, that simple. Because there are so many buttons, I'm trying to figure out how I can get my table rows to spill over into the next page without moving the whole table to the next page. If I break the table and add a new one at the beginning of each page, I'll be creating a future maintenance nightmare for myself. And it seems inefficient to create a unique paragraph tag to contain many single-row tables. Does anyone catch my drift? There's got to be a "right" way to do this... 

Thanks- John Sylte
