Create Table with Multiple Pages in Pages version 10.1

I've created a table in Pages (Version 10.1). I need it to flow to a second page, but when I get to the bottom of the page, the table just stops. How do I get the table to automatically flow to additional pages as needed?

Select your table. In the Pages Arrange panel, set Object Placement to Move with Text, and Text Wrap to Inline with Text. Any other setting will stop the table expansion on the first page. Pages only splits tables on row boundaries, and does not split rows themselves — unlike LibreOffice Writer or MS Word.

Thanks for your reply. When I select the table and go to the Pages Arrange panel, I cannot set Object Placement to "Move with Text". It is grayed out (see attached image). In the Text Wrap, I don't see an option named "Inline with Text".


So maybe I am doing something wrong that I can't visualize....Can you help me some more? What might I be doing to create this problem?
