Hello! Acording to WIKI this should work: \starttable[*{3}{|c|}] \HL \NC column1 \NC column2 \NC column3 \NC\NR \HL \stoptable \starttabulate[*{3}{|c|}] \HL \NC column1 \NC column2 \NC column3 \NC\NR \HL \stoptabulate Tabulate works as expected, but table gives errors about missing columns. It seems that |'s is not always multiplied by *{}{} command. -- Radhelorn
