To create a Table with 2 columns:

1. Open up your .rsrc file with Contructor.
2. Open the form to which you want to add the table.
3. Open the Catalog if it isn't already open.  (Window | Catalog, or
Ctrl-Y).
4. Drag a Table object to the Form.
5. Select the Table -- you should see the table properties in the
Layout Properties panel.
6. Click on "Column Width 1".
7. Press Ctrl-K to create another column (or you can use Edit | New
Column Width on the Menu).

If you are a Windows user, you probably would have never guessed to use
Ctrl-K.  Note: after you have selected "Column Width 1", Constructor's
menu is changed to include New Column Width on the Edit menu.  It will
go away if you select something else.  This is because Constructor
started its existence as a Mac program and the Mac was created with one
menu bar, shared by all apps.  Apparently, this seemed like a good way
to cram more stuff on the tiny screen when the OS could only run one
app at a time. :-)  Anyway, it is not intuitively obvious to anyone who
doesn't use a Mac.
