Dear R users:

When I create a table without Major Column headings, my *regular* column headings appear correct in the typeset latex file.  The major row heading and row groups are as they should.

w <- latex(mytab,title="",file="tab/my.tex",ctable=TRUE,caption="Descriptive statistics by Covariate",caption.loc="bottom",label="tab:mytab",where="!htbp",n.rgroup=c(3,3),rgroup=c("Type I","Type II"))

However, I'm trying to use cgroup and n.cgroup to group my columns under appropriate heading as:

w <- latex(mytab,title="",file="tab/mytab.tex",ctable=TRUE,caption="Descriptive statistics by Covariate",caption.loc="bottom",label="tab:mytab",where="!htbp",n.rgroup=c(3,3),rgroup=c("Type I","Type II"),n.cgroup=c(2,2,2,2,1),cgroup=c("Type A","Type B","Type C","Type D","n"),rowlabel="",size="scriptsize")

When I use this code (there are 9 columns total in R object "mytab") the resulting Major Column headings are typeset properly, however the colheads themselves are missaligned.  The first column heading is over the row labels (Type I and Type II), and the rest of the column headings are spaced offset to the major column headings, so don't line up underneath.

I've searched through google and haven't found anything, and I've been experimenting with every combination of latex() options I can think of, and nothing is working.  Any suggestions/solutions are greatly appreciated!

My Hmisc version is: 3.8-3
and R version is: 2.8.1
