Arpad,
I agree the sentence is not worded in the best manner, but I think it may not
be worth the effort to change after 20 years. I think the rest of the Usage
Rules section and the Example make the meaning clear.

Randy,
Oh, I see... I was reading "then" as in "greater than" or similar. Now I see
that
it is like: "first this, then that"... I don't know whether this needs to be
changed,
because my English is a learnt language, but it sure confused me...
Thanks,
Arpad

Arpad,
The sentence is describing the content of three columns. Would you prefer it
be worded as "The first column... The second column... The third column..."?

Hello Everyone,
I found a bad sentence in the v7.0 specification that we should fix in our next
release:
[cid:image001.png@01D6697E.397987B0]
Unless I am missing something, this sentence is missing something... :)
Thanks,
Arpad
