When I insert a table into pages, how can I freeze the header of the table?

skip the PS question - I already know it works differently when in pages. It's late, I'm tired, I apologize!

Thank you Alfred for dropping in.

That would be a wonderful solution. But every time I Google how to do that, I get taken to how to set up a table only in numbers.

I haven't found an explanation on how to import it into pages and drop it into the middle of a document.

Do you know how to?

Thank you for the idea Alfred. I tried it, but when you copy the table over to pages, that frozen header option that exists in numbers doesn't work in pages.

Oh well, it looks like your original advice saying that Pages doesn't support a frozen header row still holds.

I'm marking your answers as 'this helped me' and am going to leave the thread open with fingers crossed just in case someone knows a secret workaround solution...

Hello Alfred,

Thanks for coming back to the conversation. I understood what you were saying about Pages creating a more static document. Since my iPad mini is new, I didn't know if they added a really cool feature like freezing headers on a table in Pages. My fingers were crossed and hope was strong, but...

The reason I don't want something static is because the document I'm working on is a long business development brainstorming session that uses table for adding new keyword searches as well as adding new ideas to the business module. It would be nice if I had the frozen headers so I could scroll down the table, add ideas, develop them, while still having the before and after paragraphs for reference to keep the brainstorming focused. If a table goes over three pages, then you're scrolling pages up and down. If you're flipping back and forth between Pages and Numbers, then it blocks the creative idea flow even more. That's just to explain what I was looking to do.

Anyway, it's all good. White flag thrown down - I surrender. I am wanting Pages to do something that it just wasn't meant to do. So enough with the hoping and back to the planning! Thank you so much for your attention.

Your enthusiasm Alfred has been wonderful - in fact I wish I had 'met' you when I first bought my iPad because you effectively gave anyone who reads this thread a mini lesson on a lot of aspects of the iPad logic.

I'm going to go ahead and close this thread because, as you pointed out earlier, I was wanting Pages to do something for my OWN notetaking and not for sharing.

Thank you so much for your time and attention!
