To anyone who has used fields in a table:

While trying to get familiar with tables, I created one with a couple of
columns of text fields, and then tried them out.
To my surprise, when my text went over the size of the field,
a second line appeared, as in the field-within-a-form fields.
But this completely upsets the appearance of the whole table,
esepcially by moving all the lower rows downwards.

Questions:
1.      Is this intentional behaviour of fields-in tables?
2.      Is there some way to specify that a field in a table
        shall be single-line?

If I can't stop fields doing this, then I imagine I'll have to
make the field non-editable, and then handle the event that it
is selcted, and put up a form to edit the field.
Either that, or I'll have to just create 55 objects instead of
a single table to do the same job.

Cheers,
Alan Kennington.
