4.8.2 Table Formatting

Before this section I hadn't known that it was even possible to make a table in Word, I more so associated them with Excel. Although Excel's charts and graphs are much more in depth then Word's I still find them pleasant enough for simple use, I also like the options available to stylize them! I have been meaning for a while now to start tracking my finances through a spread sheet and while I'll still probably choose to use Excel for it, I can definitely see myself using the table option in Word for other purposes.

  1. One of my favorite function in Microsoft Office -- tables :-)

    Not just available in Word and Excel but PowerPoint too!

    Using tables to align your content and formatting the table(s) in your Office document play a pivotal and prominent role in A3 Tailored Cover Letter and Resume and A4 Homepage, Website, Online Publishing ^_^

  2. My experience was the inverse, I never really used excel I tended to just avoid it. I'm glad that you found use of the table options in Word.

  3. I feel so clueless for still not knowing the difference between rows and columns. I even learned this for the periodic table in my science classes but it still doesn't stick to me. When doing my MO-100, I had to open up the dialogue box to manually input a specific number of rows and columns if it wasn't 2x2, 3x3, etc.

  7. Working with tables in Word is fun. I like the fact that you can easily customize everything from data to columns and rows. That's my creativity speaking. Excel is so much different and a better way to handle financial data because it has those darn functions that I am still struggling with. I'm going to have to learn a lot faster because my managerial accounting class just started and I'm going to have to know these functions. In Word, I am able to use different functions which are so much simpler.

  13. The tables function in any platform is a good feature to sort out information. Once I get further along in my career, I will definitely have more use for this feature.

  14. I too had no idea that we could insert graphs and charts into Word documents, but they are quite useful when writing research papers.

  15. Tables are good to insert data charts, I do not think I would use a table for anything else.
