Thankyou, but I'm seeking a little more. This example gives columns of equal
width. I need to be able to control width for each col, viz some I want tight
fitting, others not. Seems that I can do this if I'm explicit about setting
width= per column, but with Latex using "tabular*" I didn't need to set width
explicitly for each col. Does this make sense? If so then howto?

Subject: Re: [NTG-context] spreading natural tables across the page
2007/4/5, MASON Peter J < [EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I'm trying to have my tables extend across the full (\textwidth) of the page.
In LaTeX I was using tabular*, specifying a \textwidth for width, and with
approp use of @{\extracolsep\fill}} bu am not having any success. Basically,
in ConteXT I want odd columns to act as labels and be tight fitting but even
cols to be the values an NOT be tight-fitting, within a page-wide table, ie
some tight, some not. As well, I' d like not to be explicitly specifying column
width.
I saw examples using option=stretch somewhere but am not able to get my use of
same happening. As well, I' d like not to be explicitly specifying column
width. Could a kind person please point me to an example of this usage.
Thanks.
