Define a matrix to be simple if it is a 0 1 -matrix with no repeated columns. An m-rowed simple matrix corresponds to a family of subsets of 1 2 . m . Let m be a given integer and F be a given 0 1 -matrix not necessarily simple . We say a matrix A has F as a configuration if a submatrix of A is a row and column permutation of F. We define forb m F as the maximum number of columns that a simple m-rowed matrix A can have subject to the condition that A has no configuration F. We compute exact values for forb m F for some choices of F and in doing so handle all 3 X 3 and some k X 2 0 1 -matrices F. Often forb m F is determined by forb m F for some configuration F contained in F and in that situation with F being minimal we call F a critical substructure.

We say that a matrix A has F as a configuration if A has Research supported in part by NSERC.

Many F considered in this paper are non-simple. For a matrix A we .
