Set the table up in a section of it's own. When you view the header you will
get a "header footer" tool bar. One of the buttons on this bar is "page
setup". Select it and the "page setup" popup will be displayed. Select the
"layout" tab. You will see a check box labeled "different first page". You
will also see a pull down labeled apply to. It should already be set to
"This section" which means only the section your table is in. If it doesn't
select it. Then check the "Different first page" check box. After you
select "Different first page" your header will say "First Page Header". Your
table title should be in the second header line page 2 in that section since
you don't want it on the first page. Make sure the first page is not linked
to the previous section. Then type in the first page table header. On the
second page, add "continued". It will appear on all succeeding pages.

In my work, I create pages with tables that are long enough to span pages. I
would like to use the automatic feature in Word that repeats the specified
table rows (Title, Column Headings, etc). However, due to the formats I'm
required to follow, I cannot use the auto row repeats since I must use a
'Continued' after the title if the table spans a page. I also cannot use
'text boxes' to put 'Continued' after the table title, since text boxes do
not seem to stay put when the document is transferred to another computer.
As far as I can tell, Word does not allow an option to add a word such as
'Continued' after the title when the rows are duplicated. I'm sure that
other people who use tables would also like this feature.
If it already exists, I would appreciate knowing how to implement this
feature.
Thank you!
