Paul,

  That's correct. By setting the column width of the cell I want to span two
lines to a length that accommodates the text on each line then I have a
narrow cell with two lines of column heading text.


Let's say I have two columns and join the top two cells in the
right column to make a single header cell.

  This makes the two columns into a single column for that row. That's a
horse of a different garage.

Is that what you want, or am I missing something?

  Consider this set of column headers in a table:

  Mean  Standard   Standard   Median
        Deviation   Error

That's what I can do by setting the widths of the two middle columns.

  What I want is this:

        Standard  Standard
  Mean  Deviation  Error    Median
