Add multiple columns to a Table

Add the ability to either specify the number of Columns in a Table during creation or allow a entered number of Columns to be added after creation.
Both would be my favored solution.
Creating a Table with numerous Columns is tedious when you have to add one at a time.

At the moment, you have to add columns or rows one at a time, which is tedious.
All I suggest is a method to add multiple columns in one operation. The use of those columns is irrelevant.
My aim was to make creating tables with numerous columns and/or rows easier.

Hi Peter. I am asking for more info/report in order to understand the final report setup/layout that you are trying to achieve so that we can think of the right tools you need to achieve it. Please help.

Thank you for your input.
What is the next think you do with the inserted column(s)? Do you bind this column(s) to particular data fields from the DataSource of the table, or use them as layout for static text? Attached report would help to understand the usage.

It would be better if it weren't part of the wizard, which I never use.
All I require is to select a content menu item, be asked to enter the number of rows or columns to be added and on pressing enter, the additions are made.

Table Wizard lets you choose which data fields you need represented as table columns and generates these columns for you. Do you need to create a table that is not bound to data and contain X columns? Because from day one the table/crosstab item is designed with data in mind. We could extend the wizard to create unbound table item consisting of X by Y static rows and columns. Is that the scenario you need covered?
