Creating a Table

Before you begin building a table, you should have an approximate idea of the size you want. If you aren't exactly sure, you can always add and delete rows and columns later.

1. Open the slide on which you want to insert a table. The slide will appear in Normal view.

   

   Tip 

   Place the table on a slide that has plenty of room for it. You might want to switch to a different slide layout first.

2. Click on Insert. The Insert menu will appear.

3. Click on Table. The Insert Table dialog box will appear.

   

4. Click in the Number of columns text box and type the number of columns that should be contained in the table.

5. Click in the Number of rows text box and type the number of rows in the table.

6. Click on OK.
