help with word object model and perl

[funeeldy]

I need to locate a particular table in a document. I cannot hardcode the table number since it could be different in every doc.
I do have some header text that comes right before it consistently, though. So, I tried to find that text, and then move to the next table.
Then I need to add a row to the table which already has 4 columns. I need to maintain the old content of the table too.
I think I am pretty close, but having a little trouble converting the vb into perl. Do you mind looking this script over and telling me where I went wrong, PLEASE?
