Hmmm, an easy solution. How about Excel?
Try this tutorial It is not easy and requires a bit of work, but it works and is effective.

I think the main defect of Xara Designer is the unavailability of Table Making. It is a very common and available in all cheapest software. Well, Xara Support team should take steps to introduce new version with at least a Table option.
The way that I do them is to copy and paste from your data base this one is a page in Excel. Import them as an enhanced metafile and then scale your drawing as it comes in a huge size by holding down shift. Each line of text is still editable but it is certainly quicker than Gary's precise way.

Design is thinking made visual.
Looks good Pete.

Exporting a pdf in openoffice calc seems to work pretty well too, although some native table creation/control would be good.
Hi Albacore
Thanks a lot for the copy paste from excel trick. It really helped me out today.
That's what we like to hear.
