Well I got this to work - eventually - without necessarily
understanding the XML behind it.I cut & pasted all the XML garbage
from either side of my data in the template - and it worked.
Here is my code for writing that table:
if (noOfItems > 0)
{
// table header row
sVal = "<w:tbl><w:tblPr><w:tblW w:w=\"8640\" w:type=
\"dxa\"/><w:tblLayout w:type=\"Fixed\"/></
w:tblPr><w:tblGrid><w:gridCol w:w=\"1440\"/><w:gridCol w:w=\"5760\"/
