Question:Can a Data Table be used as an input in a procedure?

I am trying to input data via a data table. Have several problems here.

I used an array because I want the row and column numbers to start at 0.

1st When the table appers after that the document runs hediously slow as in a second or two to enter a digit or letters appear after typing. Like something is absorbing the computer resources. But I have a fast machine.

2nd Any data I enter to the table vanishes but does get stored.

3rd I tried to turn it all into a procedure but cant get that to work.
