It seems the line I need is \nopagebreak is the command I need, but it doesn't work. Here is the situation
I have longtable and some header text that precedes it. I need to make sure the header text and the longtable are on the same page. So I just need to make sure that a new page is not started after my header text.
\nopagebreak has no effect for some reason
using a minipage will not work because it will not allow the longtable to function properly. I only want the table and text moved to a new page if there isn't room for any table rows, if Latex can fit any part of the table on the page, then it should.
Order is important, so no floats.

Problems Preventing Page Breaks
Hi John,
the needspace package can help. It provides the command \needspace which checks if there's sufficient available space, as specified by you, and inserts a pageb reak if necessary.
Perhaps have a look at Prevent page breaks for further information.
