You're working on a document in Microsoft Word, and you notice that it started a new page in an inconvenient place, perhaps in the middle of a paragraph that you would rather be all together on one page. How to keep lines together in Word seems to answer keep lines together, but it'd still be nice to see MS definition.Microsoft Word: What's the Best Way to "Push" Text to the Next Page?.Keep lines together in Word but the heading gets cut off suggest using styles, but I have quite a few different formatting for the first line (in different places of the document), which makes this suggestion impractical.Where can I read what are Microsoft's definitions for keep with next, keep lines together, and widow/orphan control? The problem I have with using keep with next is that it's fine when the relevant lines are towards the end of the page, but if subsequent editing pushes them towards the middle or top of the page, they still end up in the next page, and I'm left with a large unnecessary white space.

The option format/paragraph/keep lines together which seems the obvious choice, doesn't seem to work. In MS Word (2003), when I want to keep a line (that is formatted as a hyperlink+header) and subsequent lines (regular text) on the same page, the only way that works for me is to choose format/paragraph/keep with next.
