Many thanks.

If I may presume on your patience a little more...

I now have: \starttable[| l s1 | s1 l | s0 lp w(10cm) | s0 l |]

However, the entries in column 3 have line-feeds roughly every two words and the 10 cm column width is not being used, so there's a huge gap to column 4.

Don’t mix “p” and “w” keywords, “w” sets the width for a cell where you don’t want a line break in the cell while “p” is for paragraphs where you can set the width of the cell with “p(10cm)”. Wolfgang
