A Continuation 'Mark' for Long Word Tables

I was was wondering if anyone had found a way to mark tables as being
continued when they roll on to second and third pages?

I usually keep my tables to less than one page but sometimes it is necessary
to have long and very, long tables. I use "don't break rows over pages" to
keep the tables neat and I also use 'Heading Repeat' so that each new page
has the column headings.

I've tried entering fields in the row that is repeated for column headers
but it seems that the values are computed just once and then the same value
appears in the columns on each page.

Thanks.

The only way that I know to do this is to use

Table Continued as the repeating header line and then "white out" the
"Continued" on the first page using a textbox or autoshape anchored to
the second line and sized/shaped/positioned to blot the text. You
shape will need to be formatted with no line and fill color the same as
your document cover.

Thanks Greg, I'll give this a try. It looks like it will do the job, even
though it's a 'patched' job. :)
