You could try using the HTML text control and then using this create a table and input your data directly in to the HTML? for Example:

"<table>
 <tr>
 <th "&TDStlye&">Company</th>
 <th "&TDStlye&">Contact</th>
 <th "&TDStlye&">Country</th>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Alfreds Futterkiste</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Maria Anders</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Germany</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Centro comercial Moctezuma</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Francisco Chang</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Mexico</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Ernst Handel</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Roland Mendel</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Austria</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Island Trading</td>
 <td v>Helen Bennett</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">UK</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Laughing Bacchus Winecellars</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Yoshi Tannamuri</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Canada</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Magazzini Alimentari Riuniti</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Giovanni Rovelli</td>
 <td "&TDStlye&">Italy</td>
 </tr>
</table>"

Where TDStlye = Onstart of the app

Set(TDStlye, "style='border: 1px solid black;'")

I would recommend setting up variables for the Styles and then insetting them like above as then you have one place for and changes need otherwise yo would need to make the change across all the TDs

You would have to tweak the styling to suit what you want but this is a good way of approaching this as the html table can then be directly inserted in to the email.
