Could you please post an actual example of nested table expressions that
does not yield what you expected? It difficult to help you more since
the default behavior is that inner table expressions are always
re-executed as you can see in the following examples:
In[1]:=
Table[Table[i + i, {j, 1, 3}], {i, 1, 5}]
Out[1]=
{{2,2,2},{4,4,4},{6,6,6},{8,8,8},{10,10,10}}
In[2]:=
Table[Table[Random[], {3}], {5}]
Out[2]=
{{0.695828,0.297336,0.293787},{0.808603,
0.86753,0.370029},{0.07408,0.61986,0.331115},{0.381885,
0.0654143,0.772265},{0.686679,0.732357,0.953552}}
The above expression is indeed equivalent to this one
In[3]:=
Table[Random[], {5}, {3}]
Out[3]=
{{0.178237,0.625166,0.754389},{0.279229,
0.774446,0.29723},{0.508713,0.477397,0.695054},{0.601403,
0.211377,0.18361},{0.886451,0.733873,0.841348}}
