[Mac OS X TeX] Tables in LaTeX?

[Neal Parikh]

<x-flowed>I need some help making Excel-type tables in my LaTeX documents (using 
TeXShop).  Basically I need tables that will give me the horizontal and 
vertical rules to delineate rows and columns, and I also need options 
for things like captions and a title cell that would be the equivalent 
of a merged cell that spans the width of the entire thing.  In ASCII:

-----------------------------
|			TITLE		|
-----------------------------
| x | y | z | x | y | z | x |
-----------------------------
| x | y | z | x | y | z | x |
-----------------------------
| x | y | z | x | y | z | x |
-----------------------------

Can anyone help me out with a few examples?  Having a little trouble 
getting the hand of the position and width specifications.

TIA
