Are you going for a different page header or a different table heading row?
If the former, and if you can devote an entire section to the table, you can use the "Different first page" option. If the latter, well, this is one of those things we keep asking MS for, and maybe one of these days we'll get it. For the time being, if you need to add "(continued)" or the like, there is one way to do it: Add the text to the heading row at the beginning of the table (it will be repeated on the second page), but on the first page, cover it with a text box or AutoShape (white fill, no line) anchored outside the heading row (in the next row of the table is good). -- Suzanne S.

"DTL" wrote in message ... I have a table that spans 2 pages in a Microsoft Word (2002) document. I need to allow the table to flow (unsplit) into the second page as it currently does. This to make it easer to add data to the table in future iterations. However, I also need to change the header on the 2nd page to be different from the header on the first page. I know that, in order to separate the 2nd page header from the 1st page header, I need to add a section break at the end of the 1st page. This would allow me to separately format the header on the 2nd page w/o affecting the properties of the header on the 1st page. The problem seems to be that since my table flows from the 1st page onto the 2nd page, unsplit, the "Break" option is not available from the "Insert" pulldown menu in Microsoft Word. If split the table at the end of the last row of the table on the 1st page, the "Break" option becomes available from the "Insert" pulldown menu. I really do not want to split my table. Is there any other way to achieve the outcome I require? Thanks in advance -- DTL |
