Hi Andrew,

oops, sorry, a person of my age one should be able to read an English  
text and find out the difference between 'rows' and 'columns'...

As far as I can see, the getColumnHeadings() method of ResultsTable  
is only accessible via Java (or JavaScript). Unless one knows the  
column headings in advance, one can't simply read the ResultsTable  
and create a new one from it.
The only way using a macro that I see would be writing the  
ResultsTable to a file, closing the table, and then reading the file;  
breaking it up into lines and cells, and populating a new  
ResultsTable with the values, omitting the unwanted columns.

Michael
