>>> Dear Volker and Community,
>>>          Thank you for your reply. Sure, let me explain further. I have been measuring root elongation by means of a xerox machine and a digitizing tablet. It is time to replace this with a scanner and computer.  A typical experiment will have three or four treatments, each with three plates of seedlings and each seedling root might have one, two, or more segments to measure. There is no problem about measuring the segment lengths with Image J. But the measurement window gives me only a single column of length data. What would be far more convenient would be to write the lengths for plant one in column one, the lengths for plant two in column two, and so on. And then perhaps when getting to treatment two, go back to column one.

well the documentation says  (http://rsb.info.nih.gov/ij/developer/api/ij/measure/ResultsTable.html):

addValue(java.lang.String column, double value)
          Adds a value to the end of the given column.

but I don't see any examples in the Macros directory.
