R help - Mar 2007 - question on table format

hi everybody,

i am hanging in a problem that should be solved quickly, but, in fact, i do not
get further: building up a SUR/SES-system myself, where the regressions are
finally used to be poisson and/or negative-binomial type, i want to generate a
simple table, where i can quickly see the coefficients and their markers  for
significance.

so i constructed this "final.table" (code & outout below). as the 
markers for significance are character-type, the content of each cell in the
whole table appears as character with quotation marks.these quotations marks
should be suppressed. how can i handle this?

thank you in advance

code:

final.table3 <- as.matrix (cbind(
                      round(coef.sur5.lm[,1],4),sigc.sur5.lm[,1],
                      round(coef.sur5.lm[,2],4),sigc.sur5.lm[,2],
                      round(coef.sur5.lm[,3],4),sigc.sur5.lm[,3],
                      round(coef.sur5.lm[,4],4),sigc.sur5.lm[,4],
                      round(coef.sur5.lm[,5],4),sigc.sur5.lm[,5]
                  ))
colnames(final.table3) <- c("MW","sig.",
                            "HP","sig.",
