I should add that the method outlined below will certainly not give you the flexibility of a true spreadsheet for creating tables. Of course you can either process the resulting table afterward. Or you could take a completely different approach: create your table in a spreadsheet program and use Import to pull it into Mathematica. You can import either an original XLS or ODS format spreadsheet or, if you wish, first save the spreadsheet to CSV format and then import that.
