Ok, well, here it is. A lot of people helped me with the content. The presentation for the local user group has to fit in about an hour, so there is a lot that could have been said that was not said.
Anyway, some example files are included in the download.

Matt,
Very helpful and thought provoking
Question: Outline 10: Don't understand what is meant by "specify intersection of header row with the first column" and why is it important to name the cell "Family" or am I taking this too literally.

K:
I haven't really played with it enough to understand all the ins and outs, but here's the way I understand it:
Basically, I think I misspoke. It seems that the cell named "Family" isn't necessary at all. I've tried it without that name, and the configurations seem to work. Still, when SW autocreates a DT, the corner cell is named "Family".
If you look in the help, under "Formatting a Design Table", it says that the cell that marks the beginning of the data is named "Family", which by default is A2. I guess "the intersection of the row and the column" isn't a very good way of saying it, but I mean basically the upper left corner of the DT data block.
The help seems to imply that what I wrote is correct, but in practice, it looks like naming the cell is not really necessary.
The thanks for this really belongs to a bunch of people from this ng who responded to my request for information and examples, I just put it in a format I could present at a user group meeting.
Thanks again,
matt

I downloaded it, unzipped it and discovered it's in power point format.
I can't read power point.
Little bits of information just aren't important.
