I am working on a LaTeX table and R, but I am facing some problems concerning column width and alignment.
cat("\\centering","\n")
cat("\\rowcolors{2}{burlywood1}{white}","\n")
cat("\\begin{tabular}{>{\\rule{0pt}{.5cm}}>{\\arraybackslash}m{2.25 cm}>{\\arraybackslash}m{2.25cm}c>{\\arraybackslash}m{7.5cm}c>{\\arraybackslash}m{2cm}c}","\n")
#cat("\\hline","\n")
cat("\\rowcolor{goldenpoppy} \\textbf{Col1} &\\textbf{Col2} &\\textbf{Col3} &\\textbf{Col4} &\\textbf{Col5}\\\\","\n")
cat("\\hline","\n")

In the above example Col1 is bottom aligned while others Col2, Col3, Col4 and Col5 are top aligned. Also how can I keep column width fixed?

{}button. I also noticed that your acceptance rate is quite low (29%).

That answers your question yet you're already using anm-column. So, perhaps you should rephrase your question...? – Werner Jun 1 '12 at 4:22
