Re: Help with formatting a table

HI 

Many thanks.

I must be dumb since I could not figure out how to set Exact or Minimal Width. What I did was:

1) I selected the part of the table with the system numbers (1 to 17 - rows and columns) and set Minimal to 20 px. I see no difference at all.  Then I tried with Exact (20).  The whole thing collapses to a single column.  I have tried to set Exact to 200 but to no aval. 
2) Then I try the same thing with single columns, single cells and you name it.  No difference.   

I am definitely missing something.  Please help me out.  

At least I got Rotate and Cell height right (I hope!).  

Attached is a tm file with the table in case you need an example.

Many thanks.

Ed

Additionally, the title "System #" on the far left needs to be rotated 90 degrees, and the width of the cells should be increased to accommodate it. How can I make these changes?
