It's only necessary if you want to have full control over all columns. Since only the first column should have the preferred (and fixed?) size set, the remaining columns can be adjusted automatically so AUTO_RESIZE_OFF isn't necessary.
Rob, you're right. By setting maxWidth and minWidth, he should be able to control the first column without AUTO_RESIZE_OFF (I've never tried it that way).
I suppose I spoke without researching it fully.
The point I was trying to make is that AUTO_RESIZE_OFF doesn't keep the user from being able to adjust the column size. It merely makes it so that
the columns don't resize every time the window size changes (which I find annoying, I would much rather use scroll bars to handle that).
Thanks for correcting my mistake
