Repeating a Column Heading on Subsequent Pages
When you work with long tables, they become divided where a natural page break occurs. To make sure that your column headings repeat on subsequent pages, follow the instructions below.
  1. Select the heading row or rows, which must include the first row of the table.
  2. Click on the word Table in the menu bar.
  3. Choose the Heading Rows Repeat option.
  4. A check mark will appear to the left of the Heading Rows Repeat option, indicating that it is enabled.
Note 1: Repeated table headings are visible only in the Print Layout view or when you print the document.

Note 2: Microsoft Word does not repeat column headings if you insert a manual page break or section break within a table. If you insert a break, you will need to manually copy your column headings from the first page to the other pages.
