Splitting a long table into separate tables in FM 7.2

[Peter Gold]

If there's a lot repetitive copy/paste involved, consider creating a
blank destination table with header, title, etc, as you need, then
paste copies of this empty shell where you need them before you begin
to deconstruct the long table. This avoids having to tweak each new
table after you paste. You may need to select the exact number of
columns and rows in the target for FM to accept the paste operation.

If you need to undo this later, insert your cursor in a row that has a "start page" format in it, and use this same command, only change "Start Row" to "Anywhere."
