Thanks Jay,
I tried it and could not believe it. You are right.
I wonder why I could not do it before? Was I carrying over an old problem?
The tables I created in Word 2003 do not appear to allow repeat as header
row when loaded into Word 2007. That must account for why I thought the
problem still persisted into Word 2007.
Anyhow, it is a good improvement and my productivity has gone up a notch.
Thanks again...

Is it possible to set "Repeat as header row at the top of each page" as

I still run into problems when I forget to set this option and remember
only
after extending the table to the next page, when it is too late. I am
tired
of creating new tables.
Maybe there is a macro...
Thanks in advance.
You could set up a table with a repeating header row, and save that table
as an
AutoText or AutoCorrect entry -- if you can remember to use that entry
instead
of starting a new table, and if you don't need different numbers of
columns for
different tables. Other than that, no, you can't default the header row
setting.
But... It's _never_ "too late" to set the header row, and you don't have
to
create a new table to do it. It doesn't matter whether the table is within
one
page or extends over two or twenty pages. Just select the first row (or
two or
more adjacent rows at the beginning of the table) and click Table
Heading Rows
Repeat.
