Formatting a List Control

I am having a bit of trouble with a list control - I am trying to display
multiple resocrds one to a row - I would like to add some calculated fields
in between my Table Fields, is that possible ?

Also, is there an easy way of formatting the column widths or do I have to
edit the Column Widths property - not very friendly !

Can I change the way that the Headers are displayed ? If I can add
calculated fields, how do I add their headers ?

If anyone has a link to a good site containing info about using Lists I
would be glad of it as I have a lot of them to do (or I will if they have
the required functionality).

Thanks

Create a query, including your calculated fields, and use the query as
the row source of your list box.

You have to use the column widths property, but I'm not sure what is so
unfriendly about it. It's not that hard to type;

0",1",1",0.5",2" (or whatever)

Not sure what you mean by the *way* they are displayed. They are either
displayed or not displayed. As far as your calculated fields, whatever you
name them in the query will be their header name in the list box.
