Sorry, I misread your request.  (I saw the letters t, a, b, l, e and 
read "figure".)  You need xtable to make a compatible header for your 
table.  I haven't read the whole thread, but I think the problem is in 
using \begin{table}, rather than just going straight into a tabular 
environment.   I believe you can avoid this by using the argument 
"floating=FALSE" when you print the xtable.   So the code in your Sweave 
file would look something like


print(xtable(rg), include.rownames=F, size="\\tiny", floating=FALSE)


See ?print.xtable for more options if this doesn't work.
