Here’s one solution
I’m working in CS5, and become with that problem. How to do a right break to a table that have a big cell witthout cross the page? In 5 minutes I have found a solution that works for this current book I’m working.
1- Insert the cursor inside the cell, and make a paragraph, in the place you want the cell and the table to break.
2- Then go to Menu -Type- and choose -Insert break character-
3- Select -Column break-
I hope it work with you. It worked for me.
