What I'd like to do is the add some notes around a table to indicate
the meaning of certain rows and columns. For example, I would like to
add an arrow next to some of the rows with comments such as "Obtained
from Eq. (17)" etc. Is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks,

make them part of the table (add an extra column for the notes)

I ended up putting two tables side by side. I had to do this because
the booktabs package I'm using does not allow me to restrict the
columns over which the top and bottom rule in the table stretch.

Thanks.

Leo,

thanks for your answer. threeparttable does not quite do what I
wanted, but I found another workaround.
