still need help, repeat row as heading not working

My orginal problem:
I have a very long table that flows to about 6 pages and
would like the first 5 rows to repeat on the following
pages. I have used the table menu "heading rows repeat"
and selected the "repeat as header row at the top of the
page" within the table properties. It just won't work, I
have veiwed in page layout and printed and it will not
show up. (Arggggg!)

Are there any other deep dark secrets in getting this to
work? I have searched the MVP Word website and can't find
any additional help that would suggest another problem.
I even tried it on a smaller table and it won't work on
that either, not even one row will repeat. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I really do
not want to do a cut and paste job, especially since this
is a document that will be changed frequently.

Thanks
Suzanne

Just select the first five rows and then form the Tables menu, select
Heading Rows Repeat.

I have done this several times and it does not work. I
am totally baffled. It won't work on any of my tables.

Make sure that the other rows are not set as heading rows.

It still did not work, if I have merged cells would this
make a difference? Although, I am not sure this is it
since I tried creating a smaller table with no merged
cells and it still did not work.

Yes, I know I always switch to print layout view. I
finally got it to work on a new document but not on my
orignal that I am needing to change. I think I will just
need to recreate the table and then copy/paste the text
in. Thanks for your help - I have tried everyones
suggestion and more. I will just start from new.

I had the same problem, probably something is screwed up in the table,
but I had no interest in rebuilding it so I kept on trying with tthe
following results:

1. select the first couple of rows starting from the first
deselect the option "repeat as header row at the top of each page"

2. select only the first row and then select "repeat as
header row at the top of each page"

that did it for me

if still not working try selecting in step 1 more rows, I think that
without seeing the wrong row is selected to be repeated at the top,
prob. what will work in once is selecting the whole table starting from
the top in step 1

It won't repeat if you manually break the page..when the rows
automatically jump to the next page it will repeat.

In that case, the table that appears after the manual page break is a
separate table.
