While it's easier to enter the exact number of rows and columns when you create a table, you will find you may need to add or delete a row or column as you are working.

To Add Rows:

• Move the insertion point to the last cell in the table and press Tab.

To Insert Rows in the Middle of the Table:

• Place the insertion point anywhere in the table.
• Choose TableInsert Rows above OR Rows below.

To Delete Rows:

• Select the row(s) you want to delete.
• Choose TableDeleteRows. OR
• Right-click and choose Delete Rows from the shortcut menu.

If you Select a Single Table Cell Rather than an Entire Row:

• Choose Table DeleteCells from the menu bar. The Delete Cells dialog box appears.
• Click Shift cells left, Shift cells up, Delete entire row, or Delete entire column.

To Insert a Column:

• Position the mouse pointer where you want to column to be located.
• Choose TableInsert Insert Columns to the Right or Insert Columns to the Left.
