Adding columns
I have a table from someone else's document with two columns. I'm trying to
add a column to the right. When I move the cursor outside the last column and go to tables, insert, column to the right, it adds it to the left. Help, I have a time crunch! V |

Hi ?B?VkFN?=,
I have a table from someone else's document with two columns. I'm trying to add a column to the right. When I move the cursor outside the last column and go to tables, insert, column to the right, it adds it to the left. Help, I have a time crunch! What I usually do is - display the non-printing characters (now you see a little "sun" at the end of each cell, and at the end of each row) - very carefully position the mouse over the column of "suns" at the end of the table (right edge) The mouse pointer will look the same as when you're over a column - click to select - insert a column (to the left) Cindy Meister INTER-Solutions, Switzerland http://homepage.swissonline.ch/cindymeister (last update Jun 8 2004) http://www.word.mvps.org This reply is posted in the Newsgroup; please post any follow question or reply in the newsgroup and not by e-mail :-) |

I should think that selecting the rightmost column (that is, Column 2) and
adding a column to the right would work as well. -- Suzanne S.
