There is Neil Rhode's Palm Programming book. That is good. Not sure if the 2nd edition is out yet (1st doesn't cover OS3.5). The Memopad tutorial covers the table API pretty thorougly.
You can use WinDrawChars(). The table API does have specific datatypes that draw items for you. For custom data types, you use WinDrawChars(). Personally I prefer using my own custom draw routines, it provides more flexibilty. You don't have to do fancy calculations in your custom table draw routines. The custom table draw callback function works on individual table cells, and you are provided with the coordinates for the cell.
