Adding Rows or Columns to a Table

The number of rows and columns you specify when you create a table is only a starting point. As you put information into the table, you may need to add additional rows or columns.

Tip

Tip: You can also insert a new row at the bottom of a table by pressing the Tab key when the cursor is in the last cell of the table.

To Add Rows and Columns to a Table:

  1. Position the cursor in the table where you want to insert the new row or column.
  2. In the Editor, choose Layout > Rows & Columns and then the appropriate Insert option

    Insert Rows and Columns

    Alternatively, you can right-click in a cell and and choose Tables > Insert Row or Tables > Insert Column.

    Using the right-click option:

    • Rows are inserted above the cursor.
    • Columns are inserted to the left of the cursor.
