structure is as shown in the attachment, but....
everything is in one ROW.
inside that row are 7 columns
a column of text labels, a column of edit boxes, three columns of edit boxes mixed with blank text boxes, and reverse of the first two.
I have now tried fixed_height = true; in the outermost element, ROW, and for each individual column.
no joy.
how do I know the entireheightthere?
