Default Adding "Split Table" to a toolbar

Suzanne:

None of the table-related shortcut menus on my installation of Word included
the "Split Table" command. However, I figured out how to add the command
using the "Tools/Customize" function. So now I can split a table from the
"Tables", "Whole Tables", "Table Text" and "Table Cell" shortcut menus. I
also have the command bound to the keyboard shortcut "Alt-S", so that whether
I'm using the mouse or the keyboard, I have a convenient way to use this
command.

Thanks for your suggestion, Suzanne, and to everyone else who helped.

There are many shortcut menus; there are quite a few just for tables. But if
I just click in a cell, it is on the shortcut menu (it's not if I select a
row, however). It seems to be only on the Table Cell and Table Text shortcut
menus.

But there is no "Split Table" on my shortcut menu. How do I put one

there?

FWIW, I usually find it easier to right-click and use Split Table on the
shortcut menu.

Thank you, Helmut. That is exactly what I was looking for. (I

thought it
might be something simple like that).

Best regards.
