There are some rules to make the column remover work correctly.

1. Always put the column remover as close to the top of table as possible. Only merged rows can be above the column remover
2. Never put the mergefield for the column remover in the row that is being repeated via TABLE_ROW or ROW_CONTROLLER (or any other) ConfigType
