Text wrap / line break

I'm building a row in VB.Net from HTML strings.

I need to have a field in the row that is two lines tall, and only so wide (so it will force a wrap of the content).

I tried putting a little table in, which causes the wrapping behavior, but then it causes a line break.

===========================================
<DIV id=RowX><SPAN id=Fill001 width="1px"> </SPAN>

<TABLE width=100><TBODY><TR>
<TD class=AddRow>Add Message</TD> <<<< want this message to wrap if too long
</TR></TBODY></TABLE> <<<< line break happens after here, unwanted

<SPAN id=Fill001 width="1px"> </SPAN><IMG src="blahblahblah.bmp"></DIV>
===========================================
.AddRow
{width:50px;height:20px;font-size:10px <<<< not finalized, seems to be irrelevant to problem
}
===========================================

What might I do to keep the fields in this treatment on the same line?

Thanks

Thanks for input. Hmmm....Ok, I wasn't thinking to put all the contents of a the row into a table...but I'll check it out and see how it flies.

Didn't exactly apply this to the specific area I was working on, but did to something close, so I'm confident this is the right answer...been out there long enough, too.

So, thanks!
