Hi Craig,
We work with 7.0 but had a similar problem. We converted some documents
from Word to FrameMaker only to discover that the table headings did not
appear on the next page whenever the table spanned two or more pages.

Our solution was to build a new table, then copy the contents from the old
table. I'm not sure if this is faster than your method. Ideally, it would
be nice to tweak the 'table heading' property to set to span across pages.
Does anyone know how to do this?

Cheers
