TITLE OF ARTICLE:
(*) Title plain with no special font
(i) Title italic (\em)
(q) Title and punctuation in single quotes (`Title,' ..)

thks, it works! would you please write it without defining the newenvironment Table? it will help me to see what role the minipage is playing, thanks!

thanks, it works when I tried it in a single tex file. However it doesn't work in a multiple file document. The \usepackage{tikz} is in the main document, and the \tikz.. is used in a file included in the master file. The error is: undefined control sequence. What's going on here?
