wrapped text in tables

use package tabulary for wrapped text in tables

\begin{table}
\caption{capshon}
\begin{tabulary}{\textwidth}{lL}...
\hline
\hline
A & B \\hline
A & bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb\ X & ccccccccccccccccccccc\
\hline
\end{tabulary}...
\label{label}
\end{table}


--
for some odd reason, the label has to be where it is, when i triedto move it up below the caption i ended up with more than 100 errors
