Hans,

This didn't quite achieve what I was looking for.  I was hoping for the 
formatting of circuit 4 in the output file test.pdf, rather than what was 
produced for circuit 8.  I modified the definition of \spare so that by default 
a 15A breaker is assumed unless otherwise specified.

However, a more pressing problem is this:

If I remove the comments from the row previous, i.e., I have two rows for which 
I want nr=2, I get the strange artifact in test+.pdf where the second row gets 
wrapped up a row.  Even with the comments in place, the last row is single 
height.  What I really want are two double height rows similar to circuits 2 and 
4 but for the entire row.

advTHANKSance

A slightly ugly solution.

\def\unusedbTD
     {\dosingleempty\dounusedbTD}

\def\dounusedbTD[#1]%
     {\bTD[foregroundstyle=type,background=color, backgroundcolor=gray,frame=off] [Unused] }

and then use


    \bTD [nr=2] 8 \eTD \unusedbTD[nr=2] \eTD

You can also look at xtables for an easier way to change settings of cell.

Aditya
