Wolfgang, Phillip, Hans,

 

Thanks for the pointer to :

 

\placetable[here,split]

 

However I need this to be one table split across however many pages required, so that I would have as example ...

 

page 1: table 1.1

 

page 2: table 1.1 (cont.)

 

page 3: table 1.1 (cont)

 

please see attached code.
