Yes, I was need to set the height and width of cells as well as turn on and off top/bottom, left/right cell frames. Is this functionality covered in extreme tables?
When you write "certain rows and colums" do you mean certain settings for rows and columns?
If some functions are missing, I assume that they will be added in the future. Is this assumption correct?
