In my document, how do I repeat more than one table row when the table breaks across pages?


This function is not very intuitive, but it is possible:

  • Select the first (heading) table ROW.
  • From the pull down menus, select: Format -> Cell -> Split
  • Set the "Split Amount" for the number of total heading rows needed. Make sure the "Direction" is set to "horizontally".
  • Click on OK.
  • Add text as needed to the added heading rows. This may mean having to copy/paste data from rows you had previously created.

If this method is used, the THEAD and TBODY tags are used when exporting to HTML format.
