Two approaches come to mind. The one I use is to set the width to what I
know it must be (page size - sum of left and right margins), e.g.:

    @OneCol @OneRow @Centre 4.92i @Wide @Tbl

That may seem painful if you ever change page size but I have the above
as part of a def so would only need to change it once.

Another way is to set (one) of the column width's to "expand".
