How to add a string to Word table

Microsoft Word has a practically limitless set of tools for working with documents of any content, whether text, numeric data, diagrams or graphics. In addition, you can create and edit tables in the program. The latter often implies an increase in the size of the created object by adding lines to it. About how to do it, tell me today.

Method 2: Mini panel and context menu

Most tools presented in the "Layout" tab and providing the ability to manage the table created in the Word, there are also in the context menu called on it. By contacting them, you can also add a new string.

1. Place the cursor pointer to the cell of the string, above or under which you want to add a new one, and then click the right mouse button (PCM). In the context menu that opens menu, hover the cursor to the "Paste" item.



2. To the submenu, select "Insert strings from above" or "insert line strings below," depending on where you want to add them.



3. A new line will appear in the table location of the table.



You may not pay attention to the fact that the menu called by pressing the PCM contains not only the usual list of options, but also an additional mini-panel, which presents some tools from the tape.



By clicking on the "Insert" button on it, you will open the submenu from which you can add a new line - for this, the option "Paste from above" and "Paste below".

Method 3: Insert control element

The following decisions are inherently different interpretation of access to the "Rows and Columns" section, represented as on the tape (tab "Layout") and in the context menu. You can add a new string and without causing them, literally in one click.

1. Move the cursor pointer space crossing the vertical left border and the boundaries of the strings between which you want to add a new one, or on the top or lower border of the table, if the string must be inserted there.



2. A small button will appear with the image of the "+" sign in the circle, to which you should click to insert a new line.



The advantages of this method of expanding the table we already designated - it is intuitively simple, understandable and, more importantly, instantly solves the task.
