I want to remove the right column completly from my PC (standard) then extend the center (main) table all the way to the right. I have tried everything but no success.

Any help of what to edit would be appreciated.

From what you have it sounds like you are using the standard website template that comes with productCart.

It is quite easy to do what you are asking but it needs the CSS editing.

In the Productcart/pc folder find the file pcheaderFooter09.CSS. The code that governs the width of the main containers and left and right columns is here.

the file /* Main container */
#pcMainArea08 {
   width: 1100px;
   background-color: #FFF;
   margin: 0 auto 3px auto;
   border: none;
  }

/* Left-side column */
#pcMainArea08-LEFT {
   width: 190px;
   float: left;
   text-align: left;
   vertical-align: top;
   margin: 15px 5px 20px 10px;
   /* IE 6 double margin fix */
   display: inline;
  }

/* Main area */
#pcMainArea08-PC {
  margin: 0 205px;
  padding-top: 16px;
  }

/* Right-side column */
#pcMainArea08-RIGHT {
   width: 190px;
   float: right;
   text-align: left;
   vertical-align: top;
   margin: 15px 2px 20px 5px;
   /* IE 6 double margin fix */
   display: inline;
  }

/* ----- Main Area Layout - END ----- */

Remenber that you will need to edit the file header.asp to remove the content inside the right column between these tags: <div id="pcMainArea08-RIGHT"></div>

You can simply remove the whole column from the page if you want to.

You don't have to use ProductCarts template eaither. You can shoose almost any design you like and turn it into a productcart template with 1, 2, 3 or 4 columns.
