Robin:
There is a way to do this using a tool called MIFMuncher. It works like this:
Convert the FrameMaker file to Maker Interchange Format (*.mif).
Load the .mif file into MIF Muncher.
You can then take the output and format it nicely into a table.
MIF Muncher is a very valuable tool (no, I don't work for the company that creates it). You can download a copy from http://www.hytext.com/musthave.html.
