No, this is not possible. You can do this using the table.el package that is also part of Emacs 22, but in other ways these tables have much less features that org-mode's (for example, they cannot compute. Or, why don't you just put the general header over the table by hand, like General Header | table | fields |start | here | Hope this helps - Carsten - Carsten
