I have a table that spans 3 pages and would like to have the table caption at
the top of each page, is this doable? |

It is absolutely doable if you're referring to the Heading in the first row
of your table. Simply highlight it and click on Table | Repeate Heading Rows. If that is not what you're referring to, then put your information in a header so that it will show on each page. I hope this has been helpful to you. -- Carol A. Bratt, MCP "Bisker" wrote: I have a table that spans 3 pages and would like to have the table caption at the top of each page, is this doable? |

Thanks Carol, but what I am looking for is a way to repeat the table caption,
not the headings (already doing that.) Bill "Carol" wrote: It is absolutely doable if you're referring to the Heading in the first row of your table.

Have you tried putting it into a Header as I suggested earlier? Or is it
something else entirely that you're looking for? -- Carol A.

You can include the caption as a heading row. Or, if you put your table in a
separate section, you can put the caption in the header as Carol suggests. -- Suzanne S.

Tables with captions across multiple pages
Sorry, I mistook header for heading row, regardless, the document has a
document header and the table has heading rows. Looks like I need to manually break the table at the page break and add captions. For continuity is it best to cross-ref the additional table captions back to the original? Bill "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: You can include the caption as a heading row.

If you put your table caption in the (merged) top row of the table, you can
select both that row and the actual heading row as rows to be repeated. Does that not work for you? -- Suzanne S.

Tables with captions across multiple pages
I am working with a customer template that requires the table caption to be
outside the table. I've just gone and manually fixed it. I guess I could have put the caption in merged cells in the header row and deleted the lines so it appeared outside the table. Thanks for the different solutions. Still new at this. Bill "Suzanne S.
