RE: Multi-page Table on RH Page Only?

["Debbi Fortney" <debbi.fortney@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

This may be cumbersome, but you could designate the table to start at
the top of a right page, then manually insert row breaks (Table > Row
Format) designated as Top of Right Page. You would still have to apply a
custom master page for the Intentionally Blank pages. While there is
some maintenance involved, it may be easier than modifying the text
flows.
