Often Microsoft Word will break a paragraph in an inappropriate spot--you can control where Word breaks a paragraph by using the "Keep lines together" function.

In Word 2003 click anywhere in the paragraph and choose Format, Paragraph, click on the Line and Page Breaks tab and then click on Keep Lines Together.  This prevents a paragraph from being split between two pages.  Also note the Keep with next checkbox prevents a page break between the selected paragraph and the following paragraph.  This is useful if you want to insure a heading stays with the related paragraph.
