RE: Table heading rows
If you're using structured Frame, you can insert a Table-Heading (or whatever you've called it) element and drag the body row into the heading element.

Table heading rows
There is a simple solution that was provided by Art in a previous email: Right click in the first row of the table. Select Table. Select Add Rows or Columns. Specify 1 Row and in the Pull-down, To Heading. Click Add. Type, don't copy, the text that describes the columns and which you wanted repeated when the table breaks to a new page. Save. -- Regards, Shmuel Wolfson Charles Beck wrote: > Gillian, > > This is the only way I've found that works as well.

RE: Table heading rows
Oof, that really is the hard way to do this, particularly if you've done any work tweaking the table format (e.g. adjusting column widths) because all table formatting is lost. The conventional way to do this is to use the Add Row or Column command to add an empty heading row, then to cut and paste the contents of each pseudo-heading cell to the corresponding true heading cell one at a time, then to select and delete the original pseudo-heading row. Yes, it's kind of a PITA. If you have to do this frequently (e.g. if you have a lot of tables that originated in Word, since the heading row property is not imported from Word into FrameMaker), you'd be well advised to buy Rick Quatro's excellent TableCleaner plug-in which (among quite a few other things) can individually convert a body row to a heading or footing row with a single command or can globally convert a specified number of body rows to heading rows for all tables of a particular format. TableCleaner is probably the single most useful plug-in I have in my toolbox, but that may just because much of my content originates in Word. My opinions only; I don't speak for Intel.

Steve Kubis' new Table Tools plug-in also has a command for table heading rows. Here's what the documentation says: 'Table Tools provides the Fix Table Headings routine that examines the tables in the document. If a table doesn't have any heading rows defined, it will ask the user whether the first row of the table should be converted into a heading row.'
