John:
After I generate the xtable table, I manually edited (by inserting 
<br/>) the html header, below.
Is there a way in xtable that I can set some setting to affect my xtable 
table?
Thanks for your reply.
Bruce

<table border=1>
<caption align="top"> Analysis </caption>
<tr> <th> DECILE </th>
<th> NUMBER OF <br /> INDIVIDUALS <br /> </th>
<th> NUMBER OF <br /> RESPONDERS <br /> </th>
<th> RESPONSE <br /> RATE (%) <br /> </th>
<th> CUM RESPONSE <br /> RATE (%) <br />
</th> <th> CUM LIFT </th>  </tr>
