Description buzzdeee 2005-10-17 07:52:25 UTC
Assume a large document, full of tables. Some tables span more than one side,  
2 and more pages. There are two fields missing to do what I want. There is no 
automatic field in the "Insert" -> "Fields" -> "Other" available that will do 
that. The fields needed are: 
1. one that tracks the count of pages a table spans acutal table. 
2. one that tracks the acutal page in a multipage table. 
 
Why is it needed: 
when wanting a field with e.g. "page 1 of 4" in a table header, this "page 1 
of 4" is repeated on every page the table spans because the contents of the 
table head is the same on every page.

A page count field especially for tables in Writer is desired here.
Reassigned to requirements.
