                           TABLES









              Creating and working with tables is essential for organising and presenting data effectively in documents.
              Tables provide a clear structure, making complex information easy to read and compare. They enhance the
              visual appeal of a document, improve readability, and facilitate data analysis by summarising key points in a
              grid format. With customisable layouts, tables can be adapted to various needs, such as creating schedules,
              tracking expenses, or performing comparative analyses.

                CREATING AND MANAGING TABLE

              Table in LibreOffice Writer refers to a structured arrangement of data made up of rows and columns. It is
              used to organise information in a grid format, making it easier to read, compare, and analyse data. Tables are
              composed of horizontal rows and vertical columns. The intersection of a row and a column forms a cell, which
              can contain text, numbers, or other data.

              Creating a Table

              You can insert a table in a document by using the Standard toolbar. For this, you need to click on the Table
              button on the Standard toolbar and drag over the required number of rows and columns you want to insert
              into the table.




























              You can also insert a table in a document by using the Insert Table dialog box.

              The steps to insert a table in a document by using the Insert Table dialog box are as follows:
              Step 1:  Open the document in which you want to insert the table.

              Step 2:  Click on the Table menu from the Menu bar.
