Thank you to all who responded. I especially appreciate this distinction for future reference. It was in the cross reference definition that I had to change it.

Is the break occurring in the content of the cross-reference format 
definition, or in the referenced heading itself when it is copied to the 
x-ref location?  If the former, others have already answered; if the 
latter, then you need to put non-breaking spaces (Ctrl + space) or 
discretionary hyphens (Esc, hyphen, Shift + d) into the original heading.
