Yep, that did the trick. Wow.
I did try adding text just before and just after the table; but it put my
text together on one page and the oversized table on the next page. It's
working well, now.
Thanks for such a helpful and prompt reply; I think I'll go ahead and use
lout to build my tables, now.
Thanks again!

If the table is all you want - add @Location { AfterLine } to @Table
parameters:
@Table
@Location { AfterLine }
@CaptionPos {above}
...
What happens is that default @TableLocation is PageTop and there's no
body text that prevents that place to expand to the bottom of the
page.
Alternatively, you can use @VContract @Tbl to prevent @Tbl from
using all that extra space.
I don't think you will encounter behaviour like this in a real
document. Hope, Jeff will look into internals when he's back from
sightseeing.
Hope that helps.
SY, Uwe
