I'm not a fan of putting the table in the body layer of the document because as you would have discovered, you need to fiddle a lot with the content and can't simply paste a paragraph of text and have it adjust itself into separate rows.
Instead, I would set up a series of lines (as floating shapes) in the header so it isn't part of the body of the document and those lines will appear automatically in fixed locations as a 'background' on every page. One of the benefits of using lines instead of table borders is that you can explicitly define the position on the page (per your previous thread).
You can then apply a style with a fixed line height and zero paragraph before/after spacing to all text you place in the body of the document.
