You might find "longtable" package handy, e.g.:

\usepackage{longtable}

\begin{longtable}{|c|c|c|}
  \caption{...}\\
  \hline
  Column 1 & Column 2 & Column 3\\
  \hline \endfirsthead
  \caption[]{\emph{continued}}\\
  \hline
  Column 1 & Column 2 & Column 3\\
  \hline \endhead
  \hline
  \multicolumn{3}{r}{\emph{continued on next page}}
  \endfoot
  \hline \endlastfoot
  a & b & c\\ \hline
  ...
\end{longtable}\label{tab:???}

If you use table or longtable environment, the easiest way is using
the command: \listoftables.
