Description
A tgroup surrounds a logically complete portion
of a table. Most tables consist of a single tgroup,
but complex tables with widely varying column specifications may be
easier to code using multiple tgroups.
The tgroup specifies the number of columns in
the table, and contains all of the header, body, and footer rows, along
with any additional column or span specifications necessary to express
the geometry of the table.
Most of the properties of rows, columns, and cells inherit their
default characteristics from the enclosing
tgroup.
