* Context

  In the PDF output, I need to have tables somehow highlighted. For example,
  by placing a border around them, or by putting a background color.

  Some months ago, I did that by using =3Dorg-special-blocks=3D, such in the
  following example:

#+BEGIN_shaded
  |   Code |    1st |    2nd |
  |--------+--------+--------|
  | 361-94 | 830.00 | 830.00 |
  | 364-91 |   0.00 | 347.00 |
#+END_shaded

  But =3Dorg-special-blocks=3D turns out to be incompatible with Org-babel,=
 and
  since the latter grows in importance...


* Essays

  All of the following essays fail, in that the tables are copied verbatim =
in
  the TeX output file. That is, the columns are not replaced by the correct
  code (with ampersand as separator).

** Embedding LaTeX

\begin{shaded}
  |   Code |    1st |    2nd |
  |--------+--------+--------|
  | 361-94 | 830.00 | 830.00 |
  | 364-91 |   0.00 | 347.00 |
\end{shaded}


** Quoting LaTeX code

#+LaTeX: \begin{shaded}
  |   Code |    1st |    2nd |
  |--------+--------+--------|
  | 361-94 | 830.00 | 830.00 |
  | 364-91 |   0.00 | 347.00 |
#+LaTeX: \end{shaded}


** Quoting LaTeX code =C3=A0 la Org-babel?

#+BEGIN_SRC shaded
  |   Code |    1st |    2nd |
  |--------+--------+--------|
  | 361-94 | 830.00 | 830.00 |
  | 364-91 |   0.00 | 347.00 |
#+END_SRC


** Alternatives...

   Is there any other working alternative to get the power of Org tables and
   LaTeX code surrounding them, in order to get this:

\begin{shaded}
\begin{tabular}{rrr}
   Code  &     1st  &     2nd  \\
\hline
 361-94  &  830.00  &  830.00  \\
 364-91  &    0.00  &  347.00  \\
\end{tabular}
\end{shaded}

Best regards,
  Seb
