Hi Eliyahu,
I'm intrerested in any solution that satisfies my clients, I've set up that
they need 21 columns but they migth not want it, I've not asked them yet, I'm
looking for solutions.
You can develop your thougts further on and let me see more exactly what you
have in mind.
Did you take a look at the link I suggested?
Anyway I saw some errors in my second testgrid. It should have been:
M col1 col2 col3
1 item 1.1 item 1.2 item 1.3
1 item 2.1 item 2.2 item 2.3
col 4 col 5 col 6
2 item 3.4 item 3.5 item 3.6
Regards,
Kenneth P
