Some types of information are much better presented in tables rather than as running text. You should consider presenting any numerical information, or lists, in table format. Tables are easily created and edited, and are ideal for creating a wide range of forms and reports.
This section shows you how to:
Design grids, boxes and borders
Enter text and data into tables
Use styles and effects in tables
The information in this section can also be applied to designing spreadsheet documents. Simply select the area of spreadsheet you want to format, and add grids, borders and backgrounds as if it were a table.
