Folks,
I need to learn how to create and manage tables in OO3. The tutorial
on*table of contents*
does not address my problem.
It is necessary to put a heading above or outside the table. I can't find
or don't recognize
the listing for the*table wizard.*

I would most appreciate any assistance in helping me to understand what to
do and how to do
it. If there is a place that describes how to learn to use tables I'd be
most appreciative.

Vince, you probably want the actions available through the Table menu on the main menu bar, and/or
the Table toolbar available from View > Toolbars > Table. If you are just beginning to use
OpenOffice.org, I recommend reading the Getting Started document (and in this case, especially the
Getting Started with Writer chapter):
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/Getting_Started
Further details about Writer are documented in the Writer Guide:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/Writer_Guide
One chapter of that is Working with Tables, if you need even more information.
You'll also want to start getting familiar with the way Writer uses "styles" at various levels, and
again there's an introduction in the Getting Started material. For instance, if you create a table
you can apply the Table Heading style to its first row. You can come back here any time with more
questions, of course.
There's a wealth of documentation available on the wiki, in PDFs, and in Writer's native ODT format;
here's a general link that may be helpful:
