Folks, I just compiled this using the Help Compiler Workshop, and it worked correctly: the table columns "stretch" as the window width changes.
Granted, I was using an RTF created with Word 95, but I opened it in Word 2000 to check the table formatting.
I'll do a little more investigating, if you like, but it seems to be working as advertised.
