String [] columns = new String [] {"id", "Text(Editable)","button","Text&(NoEdit)", "combo", "spinner", "progress"};

for (int i = 0; i < columns.length; ++i) {
final String colName = columns[i];
logger.debug("Adding Col "+colName);
TableColumn col = new TableColumn(table, SWT.NONE);
col.setAlignment(SWT.CENTER);
col.setText(colName);
col.setAlignment(SWT.LEFT);
}

creates table with column names:
id, Text(Editable),button,Text(NoEdit), combo, spinner, progress

My Logger does display Adding Col: Text&(NoEdit). But created table have column name as Text(NoEdit).
Please help me to fix this.

Thanks

You need to write && instead of &, if I remember correctly.

Hi Daniel

Any luck on above '&' issue. I am trying to display '&' on TableColumn. It doesn't show up.

Please help me if you have any turn around solution to this.
