James, I'm also curious about using a period after the table title, as I can't remember noticing periods after titles in any publications -- is it required by a specific style guide? My Chicago Manual of Style (12th, can't put my hands on 13th or 14th at the moment) does not use periods after titles, an in fact it eschews repeating the title, even. (ref. 12.17) In FM 7.2 the table continuation variable is a bit schizophrenic, because while the variable content is suppressed (as expected) on the first page of the table, the variable symbol's on-screen horizontal space is not. If the variable's space had been suppressed it would be possible to do Table 1. XYZ Operation//var//. and thus have the result that you would like. Very annoying...
