Newbie Question #2: Creating Tables

[#1]

How do I add a 5 row x 3 column table with headers to a document? I have written a little jsx from existing documents but am having issues understanding how to create new objects.

#target framemaker
var doc, textLoc, tbl;
doc = app.ActiveDoc;
textLoc = new TextLoc (doc.MainFlowInDoc.FirstTextFrameInFlow.FirstPgf, 0);
tbl = doc.NewTable ("Format A", 3, 5, 1, 0, textLoc);

Note that if the table format specified in the first parameter of NewTable doesn't exist in the document, the table will not be created.
