Dori Green has already told you how to do this. The only other way I can
think of is to break the table, then add the "continued" line at the top of
the next page to a formatted line. In other words:
First Page
Table 1. List of Names
This is a caption style.
Next Page.
Table 1. List of Names - Continued
This is plain text formatted like the caption. You can allow this one to
roll from page to page. However, that said, I think Dori's solution is more
elegant.
Cheers!

Thanks, David (Bear). That's what I'm beginning to suspect.
A couple of people who've responded to me privately have misunderstood my
question. For the benefit of anyone who's interested, here's a
representation of my question:
A table title with a continued variable is like this (roughly)
Most popular baby names in 2006* (This is the title)
___________________
Boys | Girls | (This is the Header Row)
-------------------
Clarence|Beatrice |
-------------------
Wilbur | Gladys |
-------------------
Assume that this table goes on long enough so that it continues on a second
page. Framemaker enables you to add a variable at the end of your table
title. That's the asterisk.
When the table continues on the following page, this is what you get:
Most popular baby names in 2006, continued
___________________
Boys | Girls |
-------------------
Bertram |Junia |
-------------------
Blarg | Bimberly|
-------------------
I don't know how to get a title to repeat, with "continued," at the top of
a broken table.
