Word 2010 - table header / sub-header rows

I suspect the answer to this question is 'no', but always worth asking just to be sure, as you never know!

I'm wondering if there is a way to set up sub-header rows in a table that appear at the top of each page along with the normal header row, for example:

Header row titlesSub-header row 1 titlesdata data data data

data data data data

=== Page break ===

Header row titles (now automatic)Sub-header row 1 titles (now automatic)

data data data data

data data data data

Sub-header row 2 titles*(new sub-header)*****data data data data

data data data data

=== Page break ===

Header row titlesSub-header row 2 titles **** (now automatic)

data data data data

data data data data

Sub-header row 3 titles*(new sub-header)*****data data data data            etc.

I thought I might be able to 'trick' Word into doing this with nested tables, but sadly to no avail.  Is there any other way to do this except manually?

    Header rows have to be at the beginning of the table, so you can select as many rows as you want at the top (i.e., the header row and the first subheader row), but you can have repeating subheaders within the table.
