PS: Marty, remember we have a fledgling implementation of the NTTable is in the rdbService. It returns the data to the client as an NTTable. As coded it's not compliant with the document yet, but it's close enough to be useful as a test bed and to see the support you need immediately. For encoding example NTTable see [1] lines 287 to 310. For decoding example see [2], lines 138-155 checking we got the self described NTTable, and lines 190-230 getting data out of an NTTable and copying it to Vectors. I wrote helpers for that, right now I called it pvDataHelper/GetHelper.java [3].
