FM9 - Table Placement

I am having difficulty with Table Placement.

Sometimes the tables cooperate nicely and break between rows across a page in the manner I expect. Other times, they "insist" on starting on a new page regardless of the fact that there is plenty of room for some/most of the table on the previous page. In this latter case, I even have examples where they fill the page they begin on then continue to the next page for the final one or two rows.

The tables are all set up as follows:

Align = Left
Start = Anywhere
Title = No Title

This last is slightly inaccurate as I do give all tables a Title through a Paragraph Style with an Autonumber Format. This is placed before the table and is assigned to:

Start = Anywhere
Keep With = Next Pgf


I'm sure - or at least I'm hoping - there is some simple setting somewhere that will allow me to have the table break between rows as space allows (I'd prefer not to have it break across rows unless I choose to use that option as an exception).

Any suggestions?
