: InDesign: Prevent table headers from repeating I have a long table that breaks across multiple pages. It has a header which I only want to appear once at the beginning of the table. But InDesign

It's a strange thing that this is not an option that can be set on the table style. I'm in the same situation as @peacetype . We've got a document that is almost done, and now the customer doesn't want the headers to be repeated at all.
Setting the header rows to 0 (suggested above) actually deletes those rows, so that is not an option for an existing table, only when building tables from scratch.

To change header rows into body rows and keep the cell data of the rows, you need to select the row, right-click and select "Convert to Body Rows".

Set the Header Rows to 0.

Then manually adjust the first row of the table to appear like the header you want.

In short.. do not use the "header row" function for the table. It's entire function is to repeat rows as headers.
