Trouble in creating text objects

Question

OPTION 1:
var doc = app.activeDocument,
    i, j, k, l, a, _rows, _cells, content="", myText, myStory;
content += doc.stories.everyItem().tables.everyItem().cells.everyItem().contents;
alert(content);
myStory = doc.stories.item(0);
myText = myStory.item(0).texts.itemByRange(0, content.length);
var myTable = myText.convertToTable();
OPTION 2:
var doc = app.activeDocument,
    i, j, k, l, a, _rows, _cells, content="", myText, myStory;
content += doc.stories.everyItem().tables.everyItem().cells.everyItem().contents;
alert(content);
myStory = doc.stories.item(0);
myText = doc.stories.item(0).texts.itemByRange(0, content.length);
var myTable = myText.convertToTable();
OPTION 3:
var doc = app.activeDocument,
    i, j, k, l, a, _rows, _cells, content="", myText, myStory,
    myFrame=doc.pages.item(0).textFrmaes.add();
   myFrame.geometricBounds=["6p", "6p", "12p", "12p"];
content += doc.stories.everyItem().tables.everyItem().cells.everyItem().contents;
alert(content);
myFrmae.contents=content;
myText:Text = doc.stories.item(0).texts.itemByRange(0, content.length);
var myTable:Table = myText.convertToTable();
I have tried these 3 options written above. Here I am experimenting on how to create a table from text. I have a document which already has a table so I am copying all data from that table into a variable content. But still I am stuck. Help me out.

@malhar1991 – if you need all contents from a table, you could use the contents property of that table. It will return an array of the contents (unformatted) of all cells of that table.
Try the following and have fun. Select all cells of a table (that is: select the table) and run this script:
//A table object has a contents property:
//Will return an array of all cells contents
//Select a table:
var mySourceTable = app.selection[0];
var myContentsArray = mySourceTable.contents;
//Adding a text frame and a table (in this case a table with 1 cell):
var newTable = app.documents[0].textFrames.add
        {geometricBounds:[0,0,"100 mm","200 mm"]}
    insertionPoints[0].
    tables.add
            bodyRowCount:1,
            columnCount:1,
            contents:myContentsArray
Change the numbers of rows and columns at your will. If the number of cells of your source exceeds the number of cells in your target, you'll get some empty cells. If not, no new cells will be added to the new table. Cells are filled with contents, if possible.
