Thanks a lot.

I got the table heading in two rows, but the H. Alignment is now always
Left. I type "c" in Alignment box in the Special column of the Column/Row
tab, but that doesn't center the two rows, it just puts the heading back
as one row. How can I center a two-row heading in a table?

Thanks again,
egcp
