Reading Chapter 2 (Tables) in the embedded objects help manual I see an
example of a table with the line, 'continued on next page,' but no
instruction on how to insert that. The manual notes that lyx/LaTeX/TeX will
break the table across multiple pages but that's not occurring here. When I
compile the file (pdflatex) the table runs off the bottom of the page; all
83 lines are on the same page, but (of course) not all are visible.
Clarification of how to get lyx to insert page breaks, or how to do so
manually, will be really helpful.

  The second issue I've not yet resolved is rotating only the table into
landscape mode. I am not seeing a menu item that does this. Clicking on a
table cell, selecting 'settings' at the bottom of the menu box, and checking
the 'rotate table' checkbox turns it clockwise rather than counter-clockwise
and it's still trying to fit on a single page. IIRC, this needs to be done
with inserted LaTeX. Reading Herbert Voss' Tables book is on this evening's
schedule. If I've missed the proper menu and item to change table page(s)
orientation to landscape please point me to it.

Rich
