I'm trying to create a form and I want five columns of identical width on one row and then several rows below I want five columns of varying width. Is this possible? Thanks
 
Not directly - width is a property of the column, not individual
cells.

You may be able to achieve the effect you want by merging cells.

Be prepared for problems after merging cells.

You will notice that some cut, copy and paste functions are crippled on the
merged cells.

Also they will not Autofit for row height and some other things I have have
forgotten about.

If at all possible, investigate the use of "Center across selection".
