Hello,

I am still consistently working on my thesis, spreading the awarness of LyX's greatness along the way... :) yet I've run into another little problem that I was unable to solve easily with at-hands documentation.

I am trying to report some data in tables and I have come across the following obstacles that I don't know how to solve:

1) is it possible to have a table with individual cells within a column aligned differently?

2) while 1) may sound strange, I'd like to have, for example, a column with numbers centered while the header of the column is aligned, say, flushed left.

3) another practical, related, problem is the decimal-aligned columns created using the dcolumn package. When I use the d{} alignment for a column (bless Extended Features manual :), the numbers withing the column are indeed aligned on the "." but the header text of the column is in italics font (easily fixable, yet awkward, with \textrm{}) and it is aligned so that the last letter is right aligned with the decimal point of the rest of the column. I would like to have the numbers aligned on the decimal point, while the header text being, say, centered.

Is this possible at all? I realize I could perhaps solve 1) & 2) with another nested table (an HTML hell :) but I'm not so sure with 3).

Thanks for any hints & pointer!

Happy Thanksgiving!

David
