Hi Wolfgang,

Many thanks.

If I may presume on your patience a little more...

I now have:  \starttable[| l s1 | s1 l | s0 lp w(10cm) | s0 l |]

However, the entries in column 3 have line-feeds roughly every two words
and the 10 cm column width is not being used, so there's a huge gap to
column 4.

Thanks again,
Roger
