A broken table with a continued header
The Table Break feature works in both directions: it continues the table using
additional sub-tables as necessary if the table gets larger and recombines
tables as necessary if the table gets smaller.
To sever the links between continued tables, select any instance of the
continued table and choose Table > Make Separate Tables.
Adding header and footer rows to tables
You can specify that header and footer rows repeat automatically in continued
instances of tables. Even better, header and footer rows are automatically
synchronized, so any changes in the text are reflected throughout all instances
of a continued table.
In this continued table, the first two rows — the table heading and the column heads — repeat as header
rows in the continued instances of the table. The first row is a continued header.
To add header and footer rows to a table:
Set up the table to break. For more information, see “Breaking a table 1
manually“ and “Anchoring tables in text.”

To create an automatic header, select the first one or more rows of the ●
table and choose Table > Repeat As Header. To create an automatic
footer, select the last one or more rows of the table and choose Table >
Repeat As Footer.
