Here's what I have now. Attached small screenshot. 

<tex> 
\begin{tabular*}{.5\textwidth}% 
{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}|ccccc|} 
\hline 
\multirow{2}{*}{Expt.}&\multicolumn{3}{c}{Concentration (mol$\cdot 
$L$^{-1}$)}&Initial Rate\\ \cline{2-4} 
&[CO$_2$]$_0$&[F$^-$]$_0$&[Mn$_2$F$_2$]$_0$&(mol$\cdot $L$^{-1}\cdot 
$min$^{-1}$)\\ \hline 
1&0.2&0.4&0.4&0.128\\ \hline 
2&0.2& 0.4&0.1&0.008\\ \hline 
3&0.2&0.3&0.2&0.032\\ \hline 
4&0.3&0.4&0.4&0.192\\ \hline 
5&0.2&0.2&0.1&0.008\\ \hline 
\end{tabular*}</tex>

multicolumn mutirow sort of table 

Thanks Itay, 
Your suggestions work for me. 
There was no good reason for the blanks at the start and end of the 
multicolumn. I was just experimenting. 
I have reverted to curly braces. I also chose to drop the vertical borders. 
The \cline{2-4} was what I needed most. 
I like the way it looks now. :-) 

Your help is much appreciated. 

Ray

Hi All, 
I'm having a little difficulty in recalling or finding how to properly generate 
a table like the following... 
<tex> 
\begin{tabular}{|c|c|c|c|c|} 
\hline 
\multirow{2}{*}{Expt.}&\multicolumn{3}{c}\ Concentration (mol$\cdot $L$^{-1}$) 
\ &Initial Rate\\ 
&[CO$_2$]$_0$&[F$^-$]$_0$&[Mn$_2$F$_2$]$_0$&(Mol$\cdot $L$^{-1}\cdot 
$min$^{-1}$)\\ \hline 
1&0.2&0.4&0.4&0.128\\ \hline 
2&0.2& 0.4&0.1&0.008\\ \hline 
\end{tabular}\</tex> 
The above works 'fine', except that there are no cell borders immediately below 
or to the immediate right of the ''cell" created by \multicolumn{3}{c}\ 
Concentration (mol$\cdot $L$^{-1}$) \ 



There is no command for drawing borders below -- so none were drawn. 
Use \hline as you did elsewhere, or \cline{2-4} to decorate only the 
\multicolumn created cell. 
I have no idea why the right border was not drawn. 
You could give up the vertical borders and increment the space between columns. 
(I believe this is the recommended way to typeset tables, but I am not an 
expert.) 
BTW, 
Any particular reason why the last argument of \multicolumn is delimited by 
blanks (\ ) instead of the standard curly braces ({})? 
This is not the cause for the problem, but could become a cause for other 
problems in the future. 
HTH, 
Itay

Not sure what I need to add to this LaTeX to make those particular borders 
appear in LON-CAPA. 
I'd send a screenshot if this list allowed it. 
Thanks!!
