Repeating Table Heading on top of new page (using Word 2007)

morland · 05-15-2009, 12:49 AM

I have made a table in Word 2007 and after selecting/highlighting the very first row, I went into table properties and checked the option which says “Repeat as header row at the top of each page” (the attached image also shows this).

However I am unable to get the desired/expected result and when my table gets long enough and goes to a new page I am NOT getting the header row repeated.
Can someone please help me how to solve this problem?

I notice in your image, rows 1-3 are selected.

Are you getting all three rows at the top when you only want 1 row? If so, then select rows 2-3 and unselect the repeat check box.

If you want all three and they're not appearing, I'm not sure what the problem is.

Hi gistek,

Thanks for replying.

Please ignore the attached image. I have actually tried achieving this while only Row #1 was selected by still no luck. It just does not work :(

Kindly treat this as closed because i found the solution. I had to go to the Layout Menu Option and then click on the Repeat Header Rows button Under the Data Section (at the very right).
