 * I didn’t. I was just being snarky as a former PM myself, recognizing the kind
   of interaction that a dev guy thinks is intuitive or good enough. 🙂

   gonna get flamed now… watch).

 * Thank you kmessigner.
 * The plugin you reference seems to make tables outside of the page editor. I guess
   you insert them with shortcode, which i was hoping to avoid.
 * However, I did find out my answer with a dub moment.
 * You see, I wanted to use tables to do graphic page layout (see [http://www.hillerassociates.com/Expertise.html](http://www.hillerassociates.com/Expertise.html))
   which I did saving MSFT Word as HTML. I am trying to migrate to WP. What’s quite
   easy in Word, is NOT in WP’s editor.
 * But, I found that if you click in a table in the WP Visual editor IN THE EXACT
   CELL that you wish to modify width on, you can control NOT ONLY the width of 
   that cell, but the whole column, if you wish. Totally non-intuitive… but such
   is what happens when developers work without a Product Manager! 🙂

 * Thank you for the answer GovPatel. I am using Suffusion Theme. The table previews
   OK with 1000px, but the column widths are not controlled. I tried reducing to
   800px and it did not help.
