Subject: [gov2001-l] More Tex - column-merging
I suppose it's good that we all need TeX rather than R help now... in any
case, I'm running two models on unmatched and matched data, and I want to
show clearly which models correspond to which data by merging the columns
and applying "Unmatched" and "Matched" labels in the merged columns.
In case that didn't make sense, here's what I want to do, with 5 columns
total:
| one ||? unmatched ? ||? matched??????? |
| one || mod1 | mod2 || mod1 | mod2?? |
And here's my text thus far:
