Entering Table Data

3 4

Getting the data into the table is the easy part. You might enter data by hand, copy it from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, drag it from another table, or import it from a text-delimited file. To add data by hand, simply click in the cell in which you want to add data and type. Move to the next cell by pressing the Right Arrow key, if there's no data in the cell, or by pressing Tab. To move back to a previous cell, press the Left Arrow key or Shift+Tab.

newfeature!  Now in Word 2002, you can copy tables and table data by using the drag-and-drop technique. If you want to copy an entire table, simply click the table move handle in the upper left corner of the selected table, press Ctrl, and drag to the new location. (If you don't press Ctrl while you drag, the entire table will be moved, not copied.)

  1. Choose Tools, Options.
  2. Click the Edit tab, and select the Drag-And-Drop Text Editing check box.

This activates the feature, and you should be able to drag-and-drop items as needed.
