Table Titles -- How to repeat with "(continued)"?
Having a table heading repeat across multiple pages is fine, but tables often
have titles as well. Is there a way to tie a title to a particular table (especially useful when there are multiple tables with the same heading rows that apply to different parts of a product, for example) so that the title repeats above the continued title? Also, is there a way to make the continued title inform the reader that the table is continued? For example, if I want the title to read: Table 2.1 Temperature Characteristics, RF Section .... and I want that title to repeat across pages, with subsequent pages showing: Table 2.1 Temperature Characteristics, RF Section (continued) .... is that possible in Word? Adobe FrameMaker handles this easily. I can find no provision for this in Word. If this feature is lacking, it is a significant problem both for a technical writer and for the end user. This feature has been standard in technical documentation forever. If Word can do it, why is it hidden so well? Also, if Word has this capability, why isn't it covered in online help? -- Typeaux |
