Try something like this as the ItemTemplate for your repeater. You can get a much better answer if you provide some code of what you're trying to accomplish...

<ItemTemplate>
  <tr>
    <%# If(Container.ItemIndex = 1, "<td colspan='3'>Combined Columns</td>", "<td>" & Eval("Col1") & "</td><td>" & Eval("Col2") & "</td><td>" & Eval("Col3") & "</td>")%>        
    <td><%#Eval("Col4")%></td>
    <td><%#Eval("Col5")%></td>
  </tr>
</ItemTemplate>
