Today’s Tech Tip: Tables in Word January 12, 2007

Posted by Steve in : Technology, Tech Tips , trackback

Do you have to create tables in Microsoft Word but not sure how to do it? Well, Microsoft has made it quite easy with a simple WYSIWYG command, using Word’s automated formatting and its very helpful ability to create tables from plus signs and hyphens. Here is all you need to do when you want to add a table to your Word document.

Type a plus sign, then a few hyphens, then a plus sign, then a few more hyphens, then a plus sign, and press Enter. The result is a table with the cell borders where the plus signs were. As with any Word table, you can then add a row to the table by going to the right-hand cell and pressing the Tab key.
