To some extent it depends what you want to happen when the users enter more
data than will fit without expanding the table - but there are two settings,
one for columns and one for rows which can be used to constrain cell size
and, hence, table size.

For column widths ...

Table Properties Table tab
Click on Options and uncheck "Allow resize to fit contents"

For Row Height ...

Select the table
Table Properties Row tab should show "all Rows"
Set the row height as you want
Select "Exactly" from the dropdown.

Once a table has been created how do I allow users to type in the table
but
not for the table to change length?

Please help
