Table with a sub-heading row - under only two columns

Hi all,

Using TCS2 on Win 7 64-bit. This is likely a silly question but I can't for the life of me figure it out.

I want to create a table as follows:

-one table, with 4 columns and 5 rows

-i would like the header row to span all 4 columns, but only be divided into 3 pieces, so that in the first row beneath the header, I can further sub-divide the farthest 2 right-columns

I've attached a little screen diagram to try and give a sense of what I'm looking to do.

I'm sure this is a simple thing but I just can't figure it out!

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Adriana

    Select the two right-most cells in the top header row and choose Table > Straddle.
