You're absolutely right. If you abuse the hell out of the product, you'll
end up with lousy result. But what seriously bizarre justification! --
you're going to use Word in ways for which you acknowledge it is not
designed on the grounds that "many people will continue to use for that
purpose". This is Tom Cruise logic at its most absurd. And I'll bet you're
not as pretty as he is.

Sure -- or edit the PostScript/PDF files to delete the heads one doesn't
want. But when one has up to a dozen tables, each up to 150 pp long,
either
method will add approximately 50 pages to the total length of the book.
Not
to mention the labor cost of all than manual labor.

I'd like to get those pages back -- dead trees cost money.

One could argue, of course, that Word is not a page-layout tool -- alas,
though, many people will continue to use it for that purpose no matter how
awful it is.

Personally, I'd rather hand-code PostScript than use Word. But that's a
minority opinion.

The alternative is to add the headings manually on the appropriate pages

In books, it is traditional for long tables in landscape mode to repeat
their
headers only on the verso (left-hand) pages and not on the right-hand
(recto)
pages. Word (all versions) only allows headers to repeat on every
page --
so,
if one is laying out book pages, one has to physically cut out (or
white
out)
the undesired header rows, leaving the recto pages noticeably shorter
than
the verso.
