hello,

in HTML it is possible to do the following:

+---------------------+--------------------------------------+

| Cell 1              | Cell 2 - 100% of the space left over |

+---------------------+--------------------------------------+

| Row 2 long sentence |                                      |

+---------------------+--------------------------------------+

The left hand column is stretched as big as the longest piece of

text, and the right hand column will take up 100% of the rest of

the screen space (ie. column 2 = (100% of screen - column 1 width) ).

this would be done by something like:

<table border="2">

<tr width="100%">

  <td>Cell 1</td>

  <td width="100%">Cell 2 - 100% of the space left over</td>

</tr>

<tr>

  <td>Row&nbsp;2&nbsp;long&nbsp;sentence</td>

  <td></td>

</tr>

</table>

is it possible to achieve this in TRichView, and if so - how?

(example code i can cut-and-paste would be great!)

thanks,

- fred
