Trouble with Table Header

M

MMcGee

I am using Word 2003. I have a table with 3 columns and 1 row that span 3
pages. It has a table header that repeats, which is what I want. However,
the header prints on the bottom of one page (just the header). It prints on
the 2nd and 3rd page fine, but I don't want the header to print by itself on
the first page.

I have tried resizing the table but that doesn't work. Any other
suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks! Melissa

I don’t know whether I understand your description correctly. If the problem
is that the table starts close to the bottom of the first page so that only
the header appears on that page, do this:
Select the header row, then select Format > Paragraph > Line and Page Breaks
tab and turn on "Keep with next". This will force the row to always be on the
same page as the text that follows. It is always a good idea turn on this
option for header rows.
