Gooed evening,

I got to typeset a large table, which spans a A4 landscape and several
pages.

First I tried the common \starttable [|||||||||] \stoptable environment,
which did not reveal the required result: no page breaking....

The table is in the meantime reengineerd into the \bTABLE    \eTABLE
environment.
Without problems I get the widht of all columns fitted into the textwidth on
A4 landscape. But however I am unable to get pagebreaks also here.

What I am looking for is not only page breaks but also that the column
labels reappear on every new page.

Is there somebody experiences with such large tables?

Thanks Willi

This is/was possible with \starttables .. \stoptables. Use \definetablehead and \definetablefoot 
for headers and footers if I'm not mistaken.

Groetjes,
