I could start a document out with a table and maybe write some text 
outside of that table below it but then I would need to write a 
different table below that text with different column headings and 
different content.
If necessary, I could also write one table per document and text in 
separate documents but then I'd need to use #INCLUDE statements in those 
files or use the cat command to merge them together correctly.
