I (sort of) understand your solution, but I don't see how my solution is not going to scale well? I am trying to count the number of items, then list until I get to 1/3 then start a new cell and list until I get to 2/3, then new cell, then finish table. The reason for doing it this way is that this will produce a valid table. It will also allow me to add in another 2 cells to give vertical lines separating the columns, but I missed this out originally for clarity. -- Cheers, Donald :) __________________________________________ As well as learning more, I learn that there is even more I don't know http://www.donaldrnoble.f2s.com ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
