I am having trouble in InDesign, I created tables and continued them on two pages. but in two sections it splits the table like below, I can keep on selecting down. Unless I click on the next cell. Paste below and before does not work in this section.  This problem is causing that I cant convert the header section to all pages. Any help, please?

    To create the header row of your table, and get it to repeat automatically on all pages, you only need to select the top row (try placicing your cursor on the left edge of the table, the cursor turns into an arrow).

    In the Table menu or Right-click, you will find the tool to convert this row into a header row. The header ro repeats automatically at the top of every page.

     

    Please confirm the version of InDesign and Operating System you are using.

      Thank you , I did do that, but because of this break in my table (right under the selected area in the picture) this doesnt allow my table header to apply to the third page. This was done at home on Adobe CC 2017 on Windows. Any idea how to unbreak/unsplit a table?

      Have you tried to resize the text frames and link it to other text frames. So your table appears in several linked text frames, even on the same page?
