Microsoft Word: Retain repeating table headings when controlling page breaks
If you use a manual page break, a section break, or split your table to continue your table on the next page, your repeating table headings are not carried over to subsequent pages. You can work around this behavior using the Page Break Before paragraph format instead.
- Place the insertion point in the row you would like to begin on the next page.
- From the Format menu, select Paragraph…
- On the Line and Page Breaks tab, select Page break before.
Word continues the table on the next page, beginning with the repeating heading row(s) and following with the row you selected and the remainder of your table.
