Hi,
I agree!
When I added such a post card to a manual, I didn't get

Years ago in a previous company I had the same question.

I don't know if this is really the case, but 7.1b023 sounds like a very

How I can start footnote numbering for a single table for any other value than
1/a?
Of course the ideal would be to be able to have different footnote numbering
styles for individual tables :(

Is it possible to have two headers rows in a Framemaker table each with

then select them to say "repeat as heading rows", but is there a
comparable ability in FM? Right now, when I am setting up a table, I say
