Large longtable to fit in LaTeX
I'm trying to fit a multiple page longtable into my LaTeX document. Even after searching around for answers for longtable fitting in LaTeX I can't find a solution that works for my table.
This is what my table is going to contain. It should be a four column table. I have no idea how to use the longtable function correctly, since in all of my attempts the table is way too wide.
Edit:
I've updated the table after using the input from Ellen McCastle.
This now works with the multiple page bit, but it is overruling the placements of the text in the columns. So that it doesn't look as neat as I would like.
Is there any way to edit this?
I've uploaded a image of how the table looks in excel for comparison.
Table:
\begin{longtable}{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}R{2cm}L{7.5cm}R{3cm}C{0.85cm}}

My margins in my document are:
\setmarginsrb { 1.25in} % left margin
{ 0.6in} % top margin
{ 1.25in} % right margin
{ 1in} % bottom margin
{ 20pt} % head height
{0.25in} % head sep
{ 9pt} % foot height
{ 0.3in} % foot sep
Please ask for any more information, and I will try my best to supply. I am very green in LaTeX.

Solution
It would be helpful if you could provide your own attempts at the longtable.
Until then, maybe this can help you:
\usepackage{longtable}
\usepackage{vmargin}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\newcolumntype{L}[1]{>{\raggedright\arraybackslash}p{#1}}
\newcolumntype{C}[1]{>{\centering\arraybackslash}p{#1}}
\newcolumntype{R}[1]{>{\raggedleft\arraybackslash}p{#1}}
...
\begin{longtable}{@{\extracolsep{\fill}}R{2cm}L{7.5cm}R{3cm}C{0.85cm}}
{@{\extracolsep{\fill}} takes care of spreading the table across the width of your text area, the R{2cm} make the content of that column stick to the right, C to the center and L to the left.
I hope this helps you!
