Tables, Figures and Listings are sections of a Clinical Study Report or
other clinical trial related report.

T(ables):  Usually data summaries of some sort in a tabular format.  By
may include individual subject level data, e.g. Table x, Listing of
Adverse Events Leading to Study Termination.
F(igures): Usually data summaries of some sort in an scatter plot
format.  I say usually.  Probably done using SAS/GRAPH.
L(istings): Usually observation(subject) level reports in a tabular
format.  By may include output from SAS/GRAPH or summaries of lesser
interest than those included in the Tables section. May also include
ouput from SAS procedures like MIXED, but this output would probably be
in a section called Appendix.

A(ppendix): Can include any of the above.

FALT(figures,appendicies,listings,tables)

In a clinical trial nearly every data point collected is displayed
using SAS.
