Yes but it cannot keep the dynamic width of the 2nd column
<td style="max-width:400px;overflow:hidden;border:1px solid red;text-overflow:ellipsis;white-space:nowrap">Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how areyou? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how

<table style="table-layout:fixed;width: 100%;"><tbody><tr>
<td>System</td>
<td style="max-width:40rem;overflow:hidden;border: 1px solid red;text-overflow:ellipsis;white-space:nowrap;"> Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? </td>
<!-- your remaining code here -->

you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how
I tested code below ,and it seems works well when I change the screen size,
And here is my screenshot :
And code:
@{
ViewBag.Title = "Index";
Layout = null;
}
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
<h2>Index</h2>
<table style="table-layout:fixed;width:100%">
<tr>
<td style="max-width:40rem;overflow:hidden;border:1px solid red;text-overflow:ellipsis;white-space:nowrap">
Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are
you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how
are you? Hello, how are you?
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>

the width of 4th column is also a little bit different from different cases
If so ,I suggest that you may use x% to set the 4th column.

Hi,
Check this site for example, applying ellipsis on td:
http://jsfiddle.net/fd3Zx/5/
You need to remove <div> from <td> for ellipsis to work.

Hi,
Try setting width in % or rem units

I find a better solution by using CSS calc and viewport
max-width:calc(100vw - 500px);
but the last column shows "Username", it may be longer or shorter
not best fit

Hi raju
I tried your code but the table is not fully expanded to the screen.
we have some users with 4:3 monitors and some users with 16:9. We wish to make use of all the available space on the screen for every users.
<table style="table-layout:fixed;width:100%"><tr> <td>System</td>
<td style="max-width:40rem;overflow:hidden;border:1px solid red;text-overflow:ellipsis;white-space:nowrap">Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are
you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how are you? Hello, how
are you? Hello, how are you? </td>

Hi Angelina
it is ok if I know the width of 2nd column (dynamic width)
2nd column will expand for wider monitor
the width of 4th column is also a little bit different from different cases
Now I can only make it without ellipsis effect
