Word’s tables are a great way to neatly and efficiently display row and column data. In addition, with the new table styles in Word 2007, you can make great looking tables with just a mouse click or two. However, multi-page tables suffer from a glaring drawback: The table’s header row appears only on the first page, so when you navigate to any other page, the header row disappears, and your data becomes much harder to read.

One way to solve this problem is to split the document window into two panes: You keep the table’s header row visible in the top pane and use the bottom pane to navigate the rest of the table. To split the document window, you have two choices:

? Choose View, Split to display the split bar. Use your mouse or keyboard (the Up and Down arrows) to move the split bar to the bottom edge of the header row and then click (or press Enter).
? Click and drag the Split button that displays at the top of the vertical scroll bar (above the View Ruler button) and then drop it on the bottom edge of the header row.

Figure 1.1 shows a document window split with the top pane showing the header row and the bottom pane showing the rest of the table. To return to the regular document view, either choose View, Remove Split or double-click the split bar.

Another solution to the problem is to configure the table to repeat its header row on each page. This isn’t quite as nice as splitting the window because the header row still scrolls off the top of screen if your current settings don’t allow you to see at least one full page of data at a time. However, it does make your document easier to navigate, and the header row also displays at the top of each page if you print the document.

To display the header row at the top of each page, click inside the table to activate the Table Tools tab, and then choose Layout, Repeat Header Rows.

Figure 1.2 shows a twopage view (choose View, Two Pages) in which you can see the header row at the top ofboth pages.
