Imported Word docs - table heading row of long tables is not repeated for further pages of the table

[Bernard Aschwanden (Publishing Smarter)]

Having had to do this task and stare at a screen for hours, I found the price to be totally fair. Basically if it saves me even an
hour a month then that's 12 per year. So, for $5/hour I get a tool that does it all in seconds. Plus I own the tool. So the next
year it's free. Or I may decide that I only paid $2.50/hour. Regardless, I'd like to think my time is worth more than $5/hour.

Factor in sanity saved and you come out way ahead. Yup, I pay $60 for o-n-e utility (boy that takes time to type ;) and then I make
it back by using the saved time to either do billable work, other work, or to just enjoy sitting in my backyard for an extra hour.

Thought I would sleep on this before responding... well here goes...

$60 for just o-n-e utility...? $60 is the price of many complete
applications -- ok not an MS app or an Adobe app, but an app. I have written
a number of complete Word VBA programs and until now it never occured to me
to ask more than about $20. Oh well ... Supply & Demand... if it sells... it
sells...
