I found this old code for a table, but I do not understand why it is not working. Could you help?
\documentclass{article}
\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{.25in}
\setlength{\textwidth}{5.5in}
\setlength{\topmargin}{0.50in}
\setlength{\textheight}{9.00in}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
\input table
\BeginTable
\def\C{\JustCenter}
\def\L{\JustLeft}
\def\R{\JustRight}
\BeginFormat
| l | l | cn[-0.00] | cn[-0.00] | cn[-0.00] | cn[-0.00] | cn[-0.00] |
\EndFormat

\bigskip \footnotesize{\bf Note}: $AR_t$ = real returns on T-Bills, excess return on stocks, and excess return on bonds; $y_t$ = nominal yield on T-Bills; $(d-p)_t$ = log dividend-price ratio; $spr_t$ = yield spread. The bond is a 5-year nominal bond in the quarterly dataset and a 20-year in the annual dataset. \normalsize \end{document}

As David Carlisle mentioned its table environment defined in a different manner. If there are not much tables, you can switch back to usual
tabularenvironment. Here I have usedlongtableenvironment so that it will not have any affect on pagebreaks. I have also usedbooktabsto style it.Code:
I hope that you will be able to clean the empty
\textbf{}s.
