I need to make a table over more than one page. The standard approach seems to be to use the ltablex environment. However, it doesn't work; also I assume that the table environment may also be required for the thesis template I work on (e.g. suppose for the capture).

@egreg Thank you. However, may it be possible to change the code in order to work over more then one page and to add before a empty table? Otherwise could you at least offer a working code without the table environment because it doesn't work for me?

If you must combine tabularx and longtable, I prefer ltxtable to ltablex:
documentclass[11pt]{article}
usepackage{booktabs}
usepackage{ltxtable}
begin{document}
LTXtable{textwidth}{t1.tex}
end{document}
where t1.tex is
begin{longtable}{@{}cX@{}}
toprule
textbf{Column 1} & textbf{Column 2} \[6pt]
midrule
endhead

Butltablexis in Tex Live and MiKTeX. I'm not saying your package isn't superior (I've never used either) but it does require manual installation.

How odd. I was just going by ctan.org/pkg/ltxtable in comparison with ctan.org/pkg/ltablex. I didn't check against my own installation (which does include it, as you say).
– cfr
Mar 16 '14 at 0:18
could you please expand on the preference ofltxtableoverltablex? The only difference I see is the first requiring a separate file but I fear I'm missing something such as they behaviour with labels or captions.

@carandraug well partly it's that I wrote that one, but ltablex redefines all tabularx whether or not they are intended to break over a page, which can have some side effects sometimes.

With the correct code, it works fine. No table environment – a long table cannot possibly be a float, and the caption just after begin{tabularx}.
documentclass[11pt]{article}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage{booktabs}
usepackage{ltablex}
begin{document}
label{tab:daypack}
begin{tabularx}{linewidth}{@{}cX@{}}
caption{Example of an table}\

Thank you! :) the result looks perfect. However, I try and try but in the original document i get! LaTeX Error: There's no line here to end.Have you any idea why?
– alex
Mar 16 '14 at 1:13
Impossible to say without seeing the code and the .log. Probably you inserted a `` or a blankline just after the end of an environment. Usually, the .log tells you where this happens.
– Bernard
Mar 16 '14 at 1:43
Thank you very much. Somehow inltablexseems to create trouble inside my template. Therefore I've chosen the proposal from David Carlisle. However, this solution works in an normal environment and is very elegant!
– alex
Mar 16 '14 at 2:35
How could one force the table to break at an specific line, @Bernard? Thank you.

Thank you very much! This solution is very similar (aside of alignment) to David Carlisle. However it works fine and I rated it positively. Have a nice day!

We could extend possibilities of the longtable package by loading the tabu package, ctan.org/pkg/tabu. Then we would use thelongtabuenvironment instead oflongtable.

If you must combine tabularx and longtable, I prefer ltxtable to ltablex:
documentclass[11pt]{article}
usepackage{booktabs}
usepackage{ltxtable}
begin{document}
LTXtable{textwidth}{t1.tex}
end{document}
where t1.tex is
begin{longtable}{@{}cX@{}}
toprule
textbf{Column 1} & textbf{Column 2} \[6pt]
midrule
endhead

Butltablexis in Tex Live and MiKTeX. I'm not saying your package isn't superior (I've never used either) but it does require manual installation.

could you please expand on the preference ofltxtableoverltablex? The only difference I see is the first requiring a separate file but I fear I'm missing something such as they behaviour with labels or captions.

@carandraug well partly it's that I wrote that one, but ltablex redefines all tabularx whether or not they are intended to break over a page, which can have some side effects sometimes.

With the correct code, it works fine. No table environment – a long table cannot possibly be a float, and the caption just after begin{tabularx}.

Impossible to say without seeing the code and the .log. Probably you inserted a `` or a blankline just after the end of an environment. Usually, the .log tells you where this happens.

With the correct code, it works fine. No table environment – a long table cannot possibly be a float, and the caption just after begin{tabularx}.
documentclass[11pt]{article}
usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
usepackage{booktabs}
usepackage{ltablex}
begin{document}
label{tab:daypack}
begin{tabularx}{linewidth}{@{}cX@{}}
caption{Example of an table}\

Thank you! :) the result looks perfect. However, I try and try but in the original document i get! LaTeX Error: There's no line here to end.Have you any idea why?

Impossible to say without seeing the code and the .log. Probably you inserted a `` or a blankline just after the end of an environment. Usually, the .log tells you where this happens.

Thank you very much. Somehow inltablexseems to create trouble inside my template. Therefore I've chosen the proposal from David Carlisle. However, this solution works in an normal environment and is very elegant!

How could one force the table to break at an specific line, @Bernard? Thank you.

We could extend possibilities of the longtable package by loading the tabu package, ctan.org/pkg/tabu. Then we would use thelongtabuenvironment instead oflongtable.

A
tableenvironment can never be split across pages. The purpose ofltablexis exactly not usingtable.– egreg
Mar 15 '14 at 23:10
@egreg Thank you. However, may it be possible to change the code in order to work over more then one page and to add before a empty table? Otherwise could you at least offer a working code without the table environment because it doesn't work for me?
