Columns as row headers
Word 2003, Win XP
Is there a way to designate a column (first column on the left) as a ROW header? Such that the text at the top of the column repeats at the top of the new page when the other columns in the row break to another page? This is not the same as designating rows as headers for columns. Allison |

Columns as row headers
The only command that lets you automatically repeat table contents when a
table spans more than one page is “Heading Rows Repeat”. You could split the row into two and insert the text to be repeated in the first cell of both rows (the second text could e.g. be made as a cross-reference to the first). You could apply “Page break before” to the second row to force it to always start on a new page. But you could easily end with undesired results if further editing of the document moves content up or down. -- Regards Lene Fredborg - Microsoft MVP (Word) DocTools - Denmark www.thedoctools.com Document automation - add-ins, macros and templates for Microsoft Word "Allison" wrote: Word 2003, Win XP Is there a way to designate a column (first column on the left) as a ROW header?
