I have tryed your suggestion, but receives an error saying: "Cannot access
individual rows in this collection because the table has vertically merged
cells"?

Thanks anyway, Peter

Hi Robert,

There are many linked tables in my document, and it is very time consuming
to locate each one in the document, and reset the "heading rows repeat"
setting. Is there a macro that could do this automatically for all tables in
the document.

Yes, this should be possible. Sample code to set the first row of each table to
repeat:

Sub SetHeadingRows()
For each tbl in ActiveDocument.Tables
tbl.Rows(1).HeadingFormat = True
Next
End Sub
