Hello...I am in dire need of some help with a LaTeX problem.
I have downloaded the style file "fancybox.sty" and placed it
in the proper directory.  I was able to create the documentation
dvi file successfully (which requires the use of fancybox.sty).

I have now attempted to reproduce an example boxed table that was
given in the documentation...with poor results...here is my
input file...

===== beginning of input file simple_table.tex ======
\documentstyle[12pt]{article}
\begin{document}
\input fancybox.sty
\begin{table}[h]
  \begin{center}
    \fbox{%
      \begin{minipage}{\textwidth}
        \begin{center}
          \begin{tabular}{rl}
             foo & bar
          \end{tabular}
        \end{center}
        \caption{A boxed table}
      \end{minipage}}
    \end{center}
\end{table}
\end{document}
============= end of input file =========
..and here are the results of compiling...

=======================

The error pointed to is in the style file "fancybox"
but the documentation file (which uses fancybox.sty)
compiles fine. Anyone have any ideas what I am doing wrong.

thanks in advance...george
