I would assume an RTF table (I haven't seen one) can basically opened with MS-Word as a standard document. If that is the case, and you have MS-Word installed, you can access it programmatically through COM Automation, without needing to even display MS-Word. More details in Tamar and Della's book on how to access MS-Office from VFP and also using Intellisense and an Object Browser.

If I'm off-base with the concept of an RTF table (which I repeat I haven't come across as I don't use RTF documents), then disregard <g>.
