Page breaks in tables

Y

I am working with a document having a large number of tables. Generally,
a table should not be split across pages, so all rows but the last have
'keep-with-next' set.
However, rows in the table occur in pairs of two and there are a few
tables that are too long for a page, so Word breaks them across
two pages. Unfortunately, this may also split a pair of rows belonging
together.
Is there a way to tell Word: don't break tables and if you absolutely
need to, then don't break at these particular two rows?
Needless to say, I could remove the keep-with-next flag on the
next row, but as the document is fairly large I am looking for a
less manual (i.e. more general) solution.

If the rows don't have borders, could you combine each pair of rows into a
single row, set not to split across pages? Even if you're using borders,
there could be workarounds.

In Word, how do you format a table, so a row from one page do not spill over into another page
