Hi, the settings for the \c_tabl_tabulate_repeathead counter have to be global because they are currently set in a group and the split process for the table content happens after the group. \def\tabl_tabulate_process {\c_tabl_tabulate_pass\plusone \tabl_tabulate_check_full_content ... \ifdone - \c_tabl_tabulate_repeathead\executeifdefined{\??tabulateheader\tabulationparameter\c!header}\zerocount + \global\c_tabl_tabulate_repeathead\executeifdefined{\??tabulateheader\tabulationparameter\c!header}\zerocount \else - \c_tabl_tabulate_repeathead\zerocount + \global\c_tabl_tabulate_repeathead\zerocount \fi ... \egroup} % whole thing Wolfgang
