I'd like the effect of putting some text (of my choice) in the top
margin of each page.

I can see that might fall outside the printable area, so how would I
place my text at the top of each page (I can shrink the margin to
compensate).

The four page document is just one large table (it is the list of CD's
in my jukebox) so I cannot easily use a table to get a repeating header
on every page; my existing table already has that.

Do you want to put the *same* text in each header (anything in the header is
repeated in each page to which that header applies) or *different* text in
each header( use a borderless text box *over* the header area)? If the
different text, is the text placed from the body of the document use a
Styleref field.

What you are describing is a page header; see

Thank you. I'd found the "View Header/Footer" control, but hadn't had
the courage to click on "View/Hide page text". I imagined it hiding all
my page (i.e. document) text, and not being able to find a way to get it
back.
