This is what I got. \documentclass[11pt]{article} \usepackage{longtable,lscape} \usepackage{accents} \usepackage[usenames,dvipsnames]{color} % load all the colors \title{\color{Blue}How to transfer column names and add captions to pages in document} \begin{document} \maketitle I am using Sweave and MikTex to generate my report but I am having problems with a table that has 52 rows. I have no problem creating the 'longtable' but since my table is created dynamically, I don't know how to transfer the column names to the second page of the PDF. I can name my column names manually but since the table is created on the fly I wonder if there's a way that the column headers from the first page be transferred automatically to the second or third pages and also have captions on the header and footer of the pages ( something like 'Continued on next page'). Here's an example <<tab.R,echo=FALSE,results=tex>>= x <- matrix(rnorm(1000), ncol = 10) x.big <- data.frame(x) x.big <- xtable(x,label='big',align="c|cccccccccc|",caption='Example of longtable spanning several pages') print(x.big,tabular.environment='longtable',latex.environments=c("center"),include.rownames=FALSE,floating=FALSE) @ I want to add the column headers from the first page to the rest of the pages and the caption 'Continued' to the top of each page. Thanks \end{document}
