LOutlineTable -- Newbie needs help

Hi, I have been trying to get a simple table using LOutlineTable to work for
a very, very long time.  So long that I'd rather not say here because it's
so embarrassing.  Essentially I am just trying to get an LOutlineTable to
work so that it simply shows text.  I can find no documentation for
LOutlineTable anywhere.  I have looked at some of the table classes on the
Metrowerks site and none of them have been any help.  I am still a newbie to
PowerPlant and I have been stumped by this problem for so long that it's
starting to make me sick.  I understand that you have to subclass
LOutlineTable and LOutlineItem but I am really not sure what needs to be
done in the subclass.  I am simply trying to get something working that will
display text.  

My project is simply a PowerPlant Appearance Stationery PPC that I added an
LOutlineTable to.  I am just trying to figure out how to use LOutlineTable
and what functions need to be overridden (and how).  I have been staring at
this code for over a week and I have no idea how to even attack it and I
have found no documentation on this subject at all, anywhere.  Perhaps I am
not looking in the right place; but I didn't see any mention of
LOutlineTable in the CW documentation.

If anyone can offer any help to a newbie who really wants to learn this
stuff, I would truly, truly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,
Evan Hoffman
