Working with Tables and Cells in Word

Working with cells in Word is much like using cells in Excel. Let's say you have a Word table and you want to add text in the upper left cell. Just click the cell and type in your text. To move to the next cell, press the right arrow key. If you have text in a Word table, click the upper left cell, then press Tab to move to the cell to the right and select the text in the first cell. To select a single cell, triple-click that cell.  To select an entire column, move the mouse pointer over the top edge of the cell. When the pointer turns to a black down arrow, click the mouse button. To select the entire table, choose Table, Select Table, or click inside the table and press Alt-Shift-5 (use the numeric keypad, because the 5 key at the top of the keyboard won't work).
