Did as you said.  One problem solved.

I had a table, with no apparent problems, but with vertical separators. 
Publication requires a formal table!
I have not found any way to set up a heading layout other than what is
essentially the default.

    Setting up a table, adding an extra row in the heading, setting "formal"
      The order attempted produces different results.
        (a) setting width for a multirow heading turns centred heading
into left justified and unchangeable!
        (b) after both rows of a column heading contain text and in-line
maths, the bounding line cannot be removed.
