One of the easiest ways to save a complex table format (or any
complex format, for that matter) is as autotext. Format the table
to your liking, apply any paragraph and character styles you want,
but leave the table cells empty or put dummy text in them. Once
you've got things looking right:

  1. Highlight the table
  2. Select Insert > Autotext > New
  3. Type a name for the table (e.g. "table") and click OK

Use the Organizer function to copy the autotext entry into your
template.

Thereafter, whenever you want a table grid, type "table" and press
f3 (or in Word > 2000, type "tab", Word suggests "table", press 
Enter).
