Repeating heading rows
Using Word 2003. I have tried "everything" & I still cannot get my row
headings to repeat. I have tried: 1. Checking unchecking "repeat heading' 2. Text wrapping is none 3. Checking unchecking rows repeat 4. Checking unchecking allow rows to break 5. Using print layout The row just doesnt' repeat! It has to be something simple. Driving me insane. The table row only has 5 columns & I need to repeat it, since the document I will be using is about 5-6 pages. |

Repeating heading rows
A very long shot, but make sure that the heading is actually part of the
same table. If you click at the top of a column, is the entire column (all 5-6 pages) selected? -- Suzanne S.

Repeating heading rows
Hello Suzanne:
Thank you so much for your reply! I am not sure what you mean when you say "Are all the columns, highlighted on all 5 or 6 pages(or something like that). I haven't created the 5 or 6 pages yet. I will try to explain my issue. The following is a sample of the table with the columns. ITEM # QTY DESCRIPTION UNIT PRICE AMOUNT Below each column there will be value's or text. What I need to happen is that the row repeats on the next page, and if I need another page it will repeat again, and so on. Basically, I am creating a form to issue Purchase Orders to our suppliers.

Repeating heading rows
Well, if the heading row is tagged as a repeating heading row, it *will*
repeat, but not until the table extends to more than one page. Even then, it will be just an artifact: you will not see it in Normal/Draft view or be able to select and edit it in any view because it really exists only on the first page. Note that if the table is created by mail merge, you have to use a different method (headings in the page header) because in the catalog/directory-type merge you need to create a table, any static text is repeated for each record. -- Suzanne S.

Repeating heading rows
Hello Suzanne:
I must be doing something totally wrong, if you can get the header row to repeat, then I should as well(I think. Can you walk me through the steps you took? I will follow your instructions. I did click repeat rows and printed the documents but I could not see the row, I am not using mail merge. I do appreciate your time! If you would like to see the document I could send you a copy?
