Unless you are e.g. in an FO environment, where 100% can be seen as the current available width. In a more general way I did it something like this: * Columns without width or just "*" are treated as "1*" * Calculate the sum of all relative widths (SumRW) * Calculate the sum of all absolute widths (SumAW) * Calculate remaining width RestRW := Total - SumAW - If it is b $ 0 we have a problem - Else each remaining column width is ColRW / SumRW multiplied with the RestRW - Michael
