Table Basics - Part 1 Create a Table
Insert a table
In your document, place your cursor where you wish to insert a table. Then, go to the menu bar and select Table >> Insert >> Table.

After you make this selection the Insert Table pop-up will appear.

Input the necessary information needed to create your table. Decide on a number of rows and columns. “AutoFit” refers to the space that the table takes up in your document. For your initial table, you might want to set the “Fixed column width” to “Auto.” This sets the width to all of the columns in your table to an equal amount, and the table itself will take up the entire width of the document. When you have decided on all of your table options, click on the “OK” button. The table will then be automatically inserted into your document.
