Chapter 3 Using Tables 63
Header rows and header columns can be set to appear at the beginning of the table
and on each page if the table spans more than one page. In Print View, click the
appropriate header button in the format bar and choose “Repeat Header Rows on
Each Page.” If a table spans multiple pages, editing the text or changing the look of a
header row or column in one place changes it consistently throughout the table.
To learn about Print View, see “ Â Dividing a Sheet into Pages” on page 42.
To learn about keeping headers in view when not working in Print View, see Â
“Freezing Table Header Rows and Header Columns” on page 64.
Here are ways to add or delete header rows or header columns:

Header cells play an important role in making formulas in table cells easier to read and
create. See “Referring to Cells in Formulas” on page 126 to learn more.
