I can't seem to get the multirow or pbox to give me a line break (of "automatic" width). The following won't compile successfully: note the two variations in the "TOTALLY" line. How can I fix it?
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tabulary}
\usepackage{threeparttable}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\usepackage{booktabs}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{pbox}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\renewcommand{\arraystretch}{1.2}
\sisetup{round-mode=places,round-precision=1, add-decimal-zero=true, add-integer-zero=true, round-integer-to-decimal}
\begin{document}
\lipsum[1]
\begin{table}
\begin{threeparttable}
\caption{this is my first table's captive caption}
\begin{tabulary}{\textwidth}{@{}*{2}{L}*{6}{S[table-format=3.2]}@{}} \toprule

- Newline in \multirow environment
- How to add a forced line break inside a table cell
so this question is probably just yet-another-beginner's-desperate-duplicate... plz forgive!
Edit
just to supply a working example (for a quick comparison, note I got rid of the \\ in the uncommented "TOTALLY" line):

multirowmanual:If the width was set explicitly, the text will be set in a \parbox of that width; you can use \\ to force linebreaks where you like.Is there a conflict to the other packages, e.g.siunitx? – nutty about natty Apr 12 '13 at 13:55× & TOTALLY bla percentage of bla & {1000} & {2000} & {3000} & \multirow{2}{*}{\parbox{2cm}{Principal actor in rule adoption process}} & {5000} & {6000\tnote{1}}\\ \midrule; so maybe its a problem specific topboxvs. ??? – nutty about natty Apr 12 '13 at 14:08
