I'm just learning ASP.NET 2.0, so some of my terminology may be wrong. The
Standard toolbox in VS2K5 has a control called Table. Placing the control
on a web page results in a control that has an <asp:Table> tag. this tag
contains <asp:TableRow > and <asp:TableCel l> tags. The <asp:TableCel l> tag
lacks a COLSPAN propery. With standard HTML tables I use the COLSPAN
attribute to make the columns in a row span more than one table column. What
I am trying to ask then, is: using <asp:table>, how can I make the columns
in an <asp:TableRow > span across more than one column? If what I want to
accomplish is still unclear, perhaps I could send an image showing a table
with the first row going all the way across, and the subsequent rows having
mutiple columns. Anyway, I appreciate the help available on this newsgroup
and apologize for asking questions for which the answer is obvious to
everyone except me.
Thanks,
Keith

There is no such thing as an "asp" table. ASP can be used to generate the
html that causes a browser to render a table. So my suggestion to you is
to learn how to write the html that creates the table you want. There are
many sites out there that have html tutorials, as well as many books on
the subject, so there's your starting point.
