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

Evan,

there's an Outline Table Demo program folder in the PowerPlant examples
that shows really well how to do it!

If necessary, contact me via email and I'll send you some more samples
(the project I'm working on right now uses quite some outline tables)

greetings,

Jan
