I am very new to Latex and really need help. I am trying to format a longtable such that under the caption I can insert a description of the table.
I tried with multicolumn, but then the first column got really long and the text didn't fit the page.
Does anyone have experience with this?
Thank you!

    Please make your code compilable by adding the documentclass as well as the relevant packages. (See: minimal working example (MWE)). There are also at least two \ missing. One after the caption, the other after the "Source" multicolumn.

I propose this layout, based on threeparttablex, which brings the functionalities of threeparttable to longtable, with a slightly different syntax. In particular, it lets you insert table notes anywhere you please in the table, so I decided to insert them just after the caption. I had to makecell here and there to make the table fit between margins.

    And if your description is too long for aline, use:

    • Coud you please explain where exactly we can find the descriotion that the OP requested in their question: " such that under the caption I can insert a description of the table"?

    • Other than that, please note that the table is too wide for the textwidth of a standard article documentclass. You might want to add a comment on that, too.

    I propose this layout, based on threeparttablex, which brings the functionalities of threeparttable to longtable, with a slightly different syntax. In particular, it lets you insert table notes anywhere you please in the table, so I decided to insert them just after the caption. I had to makecell here and there to make the table fit between margins.

            And if your description is too long for aline, use:



            multicolumn4lparboxdimexprtextwidth-2tabcolsep%
            Source: Own depiction based on Bloomberg database. ... more text


            And if your tabular is too wide, then use package xltabular and

            • Coud you please explain where exactly we can find the descriotion that the OP requested in their question: " such that under the caption I can insert a description of the table"?

            • Other than that, please note that the table is too wide for the textwidth of a standard article documentclass. You might want to add a comment on that, too.
