I see Herbert says that this is not possible with the standard LyX tabular menu, but I have found a workaround that works rather well. Suppose you have a table with three columns, and all three should be multi-line and the same width. Create your table: Insert->tabular material (3x3 for this example) Then right click on the first column, this brings up the Lyx: Edit table dialog. There is a text box for Column Width. Set this to 33, and the unit to line%. This column will now always stay at 1/3 the line width. Repeat for columns 2 and 3. Now you have a table that is as wide as the page, and the lines inside will wrap if they are longer.
