I'm trying to setup a long table with 4 columns, each of which may contain
multiline paragraphs. I want the paragraphs to be set \raggedright, since
they're so narrow. I'm trying:
\newcommand{\colhead}[1]{{\sffamily\bfseries #1}}
\newcommand{\TR}[4]{{\raggedright #1} & {\raggedright #2} & {\raggedright
#3} & {\raggedright #4} \\ \hline}
followed by
\begin{longtable}{|p{1.5in}|p{1in}|p{1.75in}|p{1.75in}|}%
\hline
\TR{\colhead{Task
Name}}{\colhead{DRI}}{\colhead{Description}}{\colhead{Risks}}
\TR{Add to build}{Developer One}{n/a}{n/a}
\TR{Asset management}{Developer Two}{n/a}{n/a}
...
\end{longtable}
However, I'm *not* getting raggedright.
Any clues? I also tried defining \TR without the braces around
"\raggedright #1", etc., but just got a bunch of errors.
Thanks,
-pd
