ALT Insert
I noticed at work that on some computers I am able to press ALT Insert to
insert a new row in a table and other computers it won't work. Is there a setting or something that I can set for it to work. It does make things easy. Thanks. Lisa |

Hi! Lisa
The easiest way to insert more cells in a table is to right click on your mouse then click on Split Cells. In the Split Cells window you can chose how many rows, and/or columns you need. You can also display your Tables and Borders tool bar to create Tables and to split cells. To display your Tool Bar go to View then Tool Bars, and then select Tables and Borders.

Split Cells is not the appropriate command to insert an entire row.
Right-click and choose Insert Rows; Word will insert as many rows as you have selected. Insert Columns works the same way. I strongly discourage using the Draw Table pencil tool to work with tables; some of the most messed-up tables I've ever seen have resulted from this method. -- Suzanne S.
