In one of my recent projects I needed a similar functionality.
so I ended up writing a behavior, which draws a table with imaging 
lingo into one single bitmap sprite.

You can take a look at:

http://www.farbflash.de/ILtable/

it is slow for huge tables (example 2 with more than 270 cells), 
since getting the image of a textmember tends to be slow. (it is a 
little bit faster if you turn anti-aliasing off for the text)

If you improve the source, I'd appreciate, if you send me a copy.
