Hello All,

=20

I am writing a python program using the reportLab modules that connects
to an SQL database, returns results from the users query, then outputs
results to a .pdf file using Platypus tables.py and the Platypus
simpleDocTemplate implementation method.  This process works
beautifully.  The only caveat I am experiencing is the output of Column
Header info.  As it is, the platypus table method only inserts these
column header values in the first row of the table on the first page.  I
am looking to have these Column Header values display in the first row
of all pages.  I am having some difficulty with this as I am unsure how
to know at which point the table information will "flow" to the
subsequent pages.  Does anyone have an idea how I might approach this
requirement.  Any input is graciously received.  Thanks.  Rob   =20
