About Creating Tables
PageMill offers three ways to create tables:
- Use the Insert Table button on the button bar (see Figure 4) to insert a table with the number of columns and rows desired.
- Use the Create Table dialog box (see Figure 5) to insert a table with the size and some of the formatting options desired.
- Paste in worksheet cells from a Microsoft Excel document (see Figure 8) to insert a table with the number of columns and rows and all the table data desired.
Tips
- If you accidentally create a table with the wrong dimensions, use the Undo command to remove the table and then try again.
- You can always add or remove columns or rows to a table after it has been created. I tell you how later in this chapter.
- By default, all columns in a table are the same width. I tell you how to change column width later in this chapter.
- You can insert a table within a table. Simply position the insertion point within a table cell before inserting a table.
