Question: How do I insert and delete rows and columns?

Answer:

StepInstructionsExample or PictureNotes
1 To insert or delete a row, right-click in the table (or control-click on a Mac) and choose one of these menus and submenu choices from the table pop-up menu:
  • Row -> Insert Row Before
  • Row -> Insert Row After
  • Row -> Delete Rows
To insert or delete a column, choose one of these menus and submenu choices:
  • Column -> Insert Column Before
  • Column -> Insert Column After
  • Column -> Delete Columns
  
2 Example 1: To insert a row after the "October-November" row, click in that row and choose Insert Row After from the pop-menu. Inserting a column is exactly analagous.
3 A new row will appear.  
4 Click in each table cell in the new row and type the text.  
5 Example 1: To delete the "December" row, click in that row and choose Delete Rows from the popup menu. To delete multiple rows or multiple columns at once, drag the cursor to select them all

You can also select them by clicking in the first row/column then shift-clicking in the last row/column.
6 The row will be removed.
