There are several ways, (none of it is straightforward).
* If your table only contains simple text and is tab delimited, you can create
an empty table with the right number of rows and columns in LyX and drag and
drop the table with the mouse.
* If the table is in LaTeX format, you can either
+ include it (no visual feedback),
+ insert as ERT (ugly visual feedback), or
+ try to reLyX it (see man reLyX for the needed arguments for relyxing
part of a LaTeX document).
* Also, you can google for csv2lyx, a perl script that can produce a LyX
document out of csv (comma separated values). See the documentation that
comes with it for the many options, including direct insert via the
lyxpipe, tab separated values, formatting and the like.
