Word 2000 in a Nutshell

Name

Table → Heading Rows Repeat

Synopsis

If a table spans more than one page, it may be useful to repeat column headings at the top of each page of the table. To do this, select the heading row and choose Table → Heading Rows Repeat. Figure 10-19 shows a table’s headings repeated at the top of the second page of a table. As a table grows to span more pages, the heading rows continue to appear at the top of any new pages exactly as they do in the designated header row.

You cannot edit the repeated header rows. To format them or change their content, change the original designated header row content and the repeated headers will follow suit.

Choose Table → Heading Rows Repeat again to turn the feature off. As soon as you click back inside the table, the heading rows will disappear from second and subsequent pages.
