Hi :slight_smile:
How about just using "Save As..." to create numerous copies of the same document?  Or you can select the contents of the entire document by just opening the document, click into it somewhere to make sure it's active and then do Ctrl A to select all and then Ctrl C to copy to the clipboard.

Hi :slight_smile:
Ahhh, i think you clicked inside the table before doing Ctrl A?  Click outside the table and try again.

Hi :slight_smile:
We worked it out off-list.  It seems that tapping that A key twice, like double-clicking it, while pressing the Ctrl key does the trick.  I sent Pedro the 50 pages done just in case it only worked on my system.

(1) Set the cursor before 'aaaa' (Table1:A1)

(2) Press Alt+Enter

(3) Ctrl+A > Ctrl+C

(4) Set the cursor below 'Aaaaaa...' (Table4:A2) [now: last line of page 2]

(5) Ctrl+V ...

(6) Remove the first (empty) page

A very old issue: adding a paragraph before that table will help you.
(Just put cursor at the very start of the table and hit enter).

(Pls use 'page' when using writer. A 'sheet' usually refers to Calc and that might be confusing. )

Cheers,
