Splitting a long table in a float

Hello,

I'm trying to split a long table that is within a float over several pages without much success. The displayed result includes only the rows that fit that one page while the other rows are hidden. Is it possible?

Any help will be appreciated,

Ok,

I've found the answer, floats don't split

. Actually, I needed to reference the table and not put it in a float. As I had to add the caption and label manually using ERT, I had to reference it by manually entering the reference.

No, you don't need to do that. Take a look at the caption package documentation, especially for the commands \captionof, \captionsetup{type=table}, and \ContinuedFloat.

(If you are using a KOMA-Script document class \captionof is already available without loading an extra package for that.)
