After merging the columns...say i have three columns and the first column is merged.. when i click on any row it does not get high lighted..also the width of my first column is 0 so that it is not shown to the user..how ever when i make it visible to the user and click on the rows the first column appears to be highlighted..like the border color changes to but the cell inside is not highlighted..

is there are a way the when a user clicks on the row..that paticular row gets highlighted..

i'll really appreciate any help in this matter
