------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tue Nov 1 04:28:40 -0800 2005 ------- I created a new table in any empty document with 20 rows and nine columns. I merged rows 3,4 & 5, and 6,7 & 8 together in the top row I merged rows 1 & 2 in the 1st column, and again in the 2nd column and again in the 9th column. I entered some title text I then tried to set my column widths to my requirements - which are : (excluding the top row) Column 1 + 2 = 3.5cm Columns 3 thru 8 1.8cm Column 9 - the rest. However by the time I had got to column 3, the column widths seemed to be badly and irretrievably broken. The only way to change a column width appear to be to change it row by individual row. It appears to be impossible to align columns 8 and 9 across the rows. Everything seems broken and any attempts to improve things just makes matters worse and worse. Having got into this mess once, I wiped my work and started again - and rapidly got into exactly the same mess. SO I decided to report the bug and see if I could recreate it again. I could. If I can find out how I will attach the resulting file. Otherwise you can email me for it [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
