How do I make a one row table across several pages?

Hi,
I would like to create a one row two columns table, but to have this table with text flow on several pages.
But I don't know how to do this. If I enter many lines of text, the table will not go on next page, and the extra lines are lost somewhere in the void.
I can do this in NeoOffice though, and in MS Office too.
Thanks

Hello Julien,
yes, I believe I can help your brother with a solution. First set your document to a two column layout in the layout inspector in the "Layout" tab panel. It's good to see the layout guides and hidden signs for better layout creation, so make them visible (menus: "View/Show Layout" and "View/Show Invisibles". To have an appropriate distance between the the rows of text, set the number field "After" at the bottom of the same panel to a value so the distance is ca. 1,5 line spacing or whatever your brother like to have.
Now write the text you want to have in the left column. To place the translation in the right column, choose the menu item "Insert/Column Break". Now the text cursor jumps into the right column and you can write the translation. To type the new text in the left column, choose the menu item "Insert/Layout Break". The text cursor jumps from the end of the right text under the text in the left column, and you can go on.
I know that the use of the menu items is not good for the workflow, so do the following:
Open the Sytem Preferences and choose the panel "Keyboard & Mouse". There click the tab button "Keyboard Shortcuts". Press the "+" button at the bottom of the list field. In the appearing sheed select the Pages app in the pull-down menu "Application:". If you can't find it there, use the last menu item "Other..." to search for it. Now type the EXACT menu item title in the text field "Menu Title:". Here it is "Column Break". Than activate the field "Keyboard Shortcut" and press the key combo you want to have for this function like "optionshiftc" or whatever. Press the "Add" button and repeat this steps for the menu item "Layout Break".
Close the System Preferences and start Pages. Now you can use the key combos for the break insertions.
I hope whith this your brother gets the document he wants to have. But if there are more questions, feel free to post them here.

    thanks

    And what exactly would "the component" be?
    I tried the af:outputText, but it just creates a <span> around the value of the cell, and if I try the af:column it just won't use it at all!

  • How to scan data from one internal table to another

    Hi All,
    let me know how to scan all from one internal table to another internal table. Pls provide me the syntax and code.
    i am very thankful to you all in advance.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Nagarjuna.

    if u want to copy data from itab1 to itab2  then use
    itab2[] = itab1[].
    if u want to compare whether both itab1 and itab2 are same or not,use
    if itab1[] = itab2[].
    *--same
    else.
    *--not same
    endif.
    if u want to compare itabs based on primary key....
    loop at itab1.
    read table itab2 with key f1 = itab1-f1.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
    *--not same....
    endif.
    endloop.
    if u want to copy only few lines(say from 1 to 3) of itab1 to itab2 then use...
    append lines of itab1 from 1 to 3 to itab2.
    if internal tables don't have same structure,
    say only fields f1 and f2 are common,then
    loop at itab1.
    itab2-f1 = itab1-f1.
    itab2-f2 = itab1-f2.
    append itab2.
    clear itab2.
    endloop.
    if there are many common fields then...
    loop at itab1.
    move-corresponding itab1 to itab2.
    append itab2.
    clear itab2.
    endloop.
    Please don't forget to reward points....!!!

  • How to generate row numbering over several pages in PAGES??

    How can I generate row numbering over several pages in PAGES??
    e.g. Page1 1-35
    Page2 36-...

    Hi Labrat,
    My suggestion would be to create a Template in the Page Layout mode. This template would have a 1-column Table to present the line numbers and a Text Box for the Body Text. If you want the Line Numbers to stay in alignment with the Body Text, set the spacing for both to Exactly. Set the Table Cell Borders to None. The faint cell borders that you see in the following example are there because I am in View Layout mode. They will not show when printed.
    For my example I have used Format > Advanced > Capture Pages to create a Pull-down +Page option for a Numbered Line Page. You can Capture as many versions of your numbered pages as you like to avoid having to modify the Line Numbers on successive pages.
    Here's my example:
