Hey there. Welcome back. It’s Cindy again. We are in Microsoft Word 2016 and we’re now on module 6 where we’re going to talk a little bit about tables. This is section 1 where I wanted to introduce you to a table and show you a little bit about how to work with a table.

Any time you have data that you’d like to summarize into columns or into rows then you can actually create a table and put the data in the table. So let me show you what a table looks like.

Here’s a really good example of a table that has multiple columns and multiple rows. You’ll notice that in this particular table there are several columns. And columns go up and down, rows go across. Each column in this case has a label at the top so you’ll know what type of data is below it. And we actually call that whole first row there the Header Row. Sometimes you actually have row headers as well. So if you wanted the first column each row to tell you what the row meant across you could have row labels as well. But this one does not have those.

When you’re clicked inside of a table anywhere you’re going to see a little box appear on the top left. And if you click on it that is a way to select the table. It’s also a way to move the table. You can have tables in documents that already have data and you may want to move it around and have the text wrap around the table. That’s certainly something you can do.

You’ll notice that when you’re clicked in a table and you just hit the Tab key on the keyboard you’ll move to the next what we call Cell to the right. And you’ll keep going down to the next row each time you get to the end. Be very careful because if you’re in the last cell in the last row and you hit the Tab key you’ll get an additional row. Now that’s great if you need an additional row, but if you don’t need it just go ahead and hit Undo and that way you can get rid of it. You can also click anywhere you’d like to be and that way you can just type information wherever you happen to want to put the information.

You’re also going to see as we go through that you can write formulas in your tables. There’s actually a formula right here that calculates the totals. And that’s something else I’m going to be showing you how to do.

So that’s a quick overview on working a little bit with tables. What I’d like to do now is go over into section 2 and show you how to create a table.
