That sounds like a job for number-columns-spanned. Something roughly like this for column 3 should do it: <xsl:choose> <xsl:when test="column-4-value=''"> <fo:table-cell number-columns-spanned="2"> <fo:block>whatever stuff you need</fo:block> </fo:table-cell> </xsl:when> <xsl:otherwise> <fo:table-cell> <fo:block>column 3</fo:block> </fo:table-cell> <fo:table-cell> <fo:block><xsl:value-of select="column-4-value"/></fo:block> </fo:table-cell> </xsl:otherwise> </xsl:choose> Eric Amick Legislative Computer Systems Office of the Clerk

In some cases (10% of the time), when column 4 is blank, I need to force the content of column 3 to continue into column 4 on the same line. At the present time, when this happens, the content of column 3 is displayed and it just wraps on to the next line of column 3. Any ideas? Jeff
