What is the "right" way to create a Grid that has a fixed number of
columns of equal width?

What I need is a fixed 3-column layout to which I can dynamically add
cells. Regardless of the content of the cells, the column widths should
remain the same. Also, the columns would need to resize when the Grid is
resized. I'm basing this on the Grid layout because I also need the
column spanning capability that Grid gives me.

Any hints would be a great help in getting me going.

For extra bonus points ... what I *really* want is something more like
three VBoxes of equal width, so that the contents are not forced to
align vertically, as with a Grid, but where I also get the column
spanning that a Grid gives me. (This is more like newspaper layout,
except that I don't care about content flowing from one column to the
next.) However working with a Grid will get me going for now.

Thanks very much!
