complex data entry forms design with excel
I need to design a data entry form in excel. The problem is that one part of
the form requires different column width than second part where I need to design a table with different column widths. Is this possible with Excel 2003 |

You could use Format|cells|alignment tab|and merge some cells to combine cells
into a "wider cell". But merged cells can screw up lots of other things. I wouldn't do this. Amol Karnik wrote: I need to design a data entry form in excel.

Use wide cells for the whole column.
If you're trying to put separate tables on the same worksheet, then I wouldn't do that either. I'd put each table on a different worksheet. Then the columnwidths wouldn't be much of an issue.
