Bob,
When I add new rows in gangs like this, Word splits the table (sort of) at
every fourth row. At each fourth row, there's a thicker horizontal line, that
line shows a different "whole table" icon at the upper left coner, and table
formatting stops at these lines.
How do I turn this off?

Hi R,
You can do it, but not quite with a one step process (although you could use a macro to put the steps together).
If your cursor is just below the end of the table you can use
Insert=Table=Insert Table
and enter the number of columns and rows, The new rows will attach to the other table.
If you're adding in the middle of a table you can use the same technique but first use Table=Layout=Split Table. After adding the
rows delete the blank line after the new rows to reattach the two table parts.
If you right click on the Insert=Table=Insert Table and add it to the Quick Access Toolbar you can popup the dialog with one
click. You can also assign a keyboard shortcut (via Alt, T, O, C) to TableInsertTable command (which is in the 'All Commands' list
in keyboard customization). I generally add one a keyboard shortcut to the TableInsertRow command and just add them in the middle
of the table where my cursor is with that keyboard shortcut as I go.

Is there any way to add multiple rows to a Word 2007 table all at once?
(without selecting existing rows first). For instance, I want to quickly add
20 rows to a three row table. Thank you.
