I had a quick glance, but I'm afraid the questions above are not addressed. Correct me if I'm wrong. > setupTABLE[r][1][heigth=3D24pt] > setupTABLE[c][odd][width=3D12pt] > % the page gives more examples >=20 > Sorry if this is not what you are looking for. Well, not exactly. By default, a column has the width of its widest entry. Using width=3D5cm, I can only define the absolute width of a column. But what I want is to increase the separation of adjectant columns. Whether this is achieved by adding space between columns or by setting their width to a certain amount wider than their natural width doesn't matter to me. You have already experienced the absence of a desirable feature yourself, but let me point out once again that this cannot be achieved by setting the rulethickness of the cell frame, since it is not possible to change left/right thickness from the top/bottom one, and frames are invisible but still take space if you deactivate them via e.g. topframe=3Doff. Thanks for your page - it's surely of help, especially for newcomers, since tables (and the many different possibilities to produce them) are cumbersome in context. Greetings, --=20 Eckhart
