Is there a way to automatically repeat the word "continued" ...
Is there a way to automatically repeat the word "continued" at the bottom of
a multiple-page table of contents? It would work something like Header Rows Repeat but at the bottom of the page instead of the top. -- Thanks! Mary Lee |

There's no built-in method. You could do it this way --
1. Put a new-page section break at the end of the TOC. 2. Clear the 'Same as previous' setting for the subsequent section footers. 3. In the TOC footer, add a field: { IF { PAGE } { SECTIONPAGES } "Continued" }. This will display "Continued" on all but the last page of the section. You'll probably need to push the footer up a little into the body of the page to get the positioning right, or use an unbordered textbox anchored to the footer. If your TOC is preceded only by a title page, you can use a different first page header so you don't get 'Continued' on the title page also. If you have more preceding pages, add a new page section break before the TOC and add some arithmetic to the field --- { IF { = { PAGE } + n } { SECTIONPAGES } "Continued" } where n is the number of preceding pages.

OK, Jezebel, I am playing with this. But it is not my TOC I want to do this
to - it's a long Bill of Materials. I can't put section breaks on a page with a continuing table like that. If I split the table so that I can, then the whole concept of automating the breaks is lost. Perhaps it just can't be done. ( -- Thanks! Mary Lee "Jezebel" wrote: There's no built-in method.

Why can't you put section breaks before and after your bill of materials?
