header rows in a table

[donna brown]

I am using Word 2002 in Windows XP. I have a document
that contains several tables. The first two rows of each
table are header rows. I am having a problem when the
page breaks between the first and second header row.
What is happening is the first header row is at the end
of one page and the second header row is the first thing
on the new page. Is there any way to tie these two
header rows together so that don't break up like that?

 

[PTT, Inc.]

If you selected both of these two rows at the very top of your table and
clicked "Table", "Heading rows repeat", the two rows won't break across the
page (at least they aren't supposed to). Did you copy the two rows to the
top of each page? If so, then they really aren't "Heading rows".

Make sure the heading rows are actually marked as heading rows (Table |
Heading Rows Repeat), then select both rows and check the box for "Keep with
next" on the Line and Page Breaks tab of Format Paragraph.
