Table continued variable not always working

Mon Apr 28 14:10:18 PDT 2008

Yes, it's part of the table designer definition of the table.

The problem is what Tammy described. I had to set a right indent for the
table title para style to force the para to wrap. It apparently won't
automatically wrap just for the continued variable. I have a rather small
page size, so the titles did need to wrap to fit the Continued text in.

Setting a right indent of .75" worked to get both of the tables to always
show the continued variable.

Thanks, Tammy!

 For this to work the table title has to be inserted as one of the table
parameters, not as a separate paragraph above or below the table. Look
at the table designer, there is a selection for the title to be
"Above...", "Below..." or "No Title". If, for instance, your table title
paragraph is inserted manually in the paragraph where the table is
anchored, it can the same visually, but the variable will not work. The
automatic version inserts a little cell above or below the table for the
title paragraph, which you can change to your chosen paragraph style and
add the variable to.

Framers,

Thanks for all the advice about pagination fine tuning. I'll be using
that info soon.

Now, I'm inserting the table continuation variable, and it doesn't
always work (FM 7.0 on Win XP). I've never seen this before.

I change to another variable in the same place, and it works just fine.
Every other variable I insert is fine, but when I return to table cont.,
it may or may not work as I look at the table continuing on the next
page (I know that I need to look at the continued part of the table on
the next page). It's very odd. 

I had one working, then I just opened the file, and not it's not any
more.

I've moved the table title from the bottom to the top and back.
Sometimes that "fixes" it, but apparently only temporarily. I've had it
happen in two different tables in two different chapters (both part of
the same book). I just looked at the other one that I'd fixed a few days
ago, and it, too, is no longer working. =:o

Has anyone else seen this? Any fixes?
