Shouldn't this be a list of lists, the tabledata should normally 
resemble a grid I think?
WeeklyReport = [['test', 'test', 'test']]
or
WeeklyReport = [['test', 'test', 'test'],
                            ['test', 'test', 'test']]

These should be lists too,
rowheight = [10]
colwidth = [10, 10, 10]

That should work, shouldn't it?
