Table captions in Word template
Is there a way to programmatically display the table caption on each
page of a multi-page table to which the caption is attached? I'd like to do this in the template so that it automatically backfixes documents already done. This also should be as "hands-off" as possible b/c my Word document is actually generated by another application that spills the content out of a db into the Word template. For this reason it is undesirable to attach the caption to the table as a cell and apply the table heading row feature. Is anyone aware of an easy fix to accomplish this? TIA |

Hi Lighthouse,
Is there a way to programmatically display the table caption on each page of a multi-page table to which the caption is attached? Word provides no way to do this. The closest is the Heading Row feature. But this can be applied programmatically. The only other possibility that occurs to me would be to place the table in its own section, uncouple the header/footer from the preceding and following sections, then put the caption in the header/footer range. If you want to do anything programmatically, you should followup in a word.vba or office.developer newsgroup. I'd like to do this in the template so that it automatically backfixes documents already done. This also should be as "hands-off" as possible b/c my Word document is actually generated by another application that spills the content out of a db into the Word template.

There's no reason you can't put the caption in a heading row, though.
