Is there a reason you need the data in multiple columns.

It would seem you could accomplish what you want by having a single column and then displaying each row appropriately by either fixed horizontal positioning or fixed font.

Columns are really defined as being homogeneous in nature and it seems like your output (because of the labels) breaks that principle. You need to find that sameness aspect of the data you're dealing with, otherwise it may not be the right tool for you.

Mark,

You're absolutely write...I've been thinking that for a few days now. I guess I'll have to write my own display classes. A while back I wrote a x86 assembler using VB in Excel to learn that applications abilities. It was possible using the spreadsheet. I've seen some pretty amazing apps. using the cocoa framework and was hoping it was flexible enough. Guess not.

Thanks all for the info.
