I felt the exact same way! Looks like you need form not table. I haven't gotten 
into forms much, but you can pretty much do just about anything. It may help to 
think of a datagrid as a premade framework in it's own right. Everything 
already works out of the box, but you can go into the innards if you will, and 
make it work the way you like, if you know how. You can also break it, so 
backups, good! Time Machine has saved my bacon more than once.
