Set Up Table Headers

A table header is a row, usually at the top of a table, that is styled differently to the other rows. Typically, header rows are where you categorize each column, so that your readers know what information is shown in the table. For example, if you had a table for temperatures over a week, you might have a table header with "Day" in one column, "Min Temp" in the next column, and "Max Temp" in the last column.

When you use the Table Editor to Create a Table, Paligo gives you the option to add a header. But you might create a table without a header and then later decide you need to Add Table Header. Alternatively, you may decide that you need a different type of header, for example, a Turn Cell into Table Header or the Turn Column into Table Header.

The following sections explain the various ways of setting up table headers to meet your requirements.
