Select tables, cells, rows, and columns

To edit and rearrange tables, cells, rows, and columns, you must first select them.

Note: The tasks below apply to a table you add to your page. They don’t apply to a page you formatted into columns.

Select a table

Sometimes you must select rather than just tap a table to complete a specific task. Selecting ensures that the table is in the correct state for the steps that follow.

Select rows and columns

  1. Tap the table.

    Letters appear above the columns and numbers appear to the left of the rows.

  2. Do any of the following:

    • Select a single row or column: Tap the number or letter for the row or column.

    • Select multiple rows or columns: Tap the number or letter for a row or column, then drag a blue dot to encompass the rows or columns you want.
