Question

A table can be placed in a document using the tab.

Answer 1

Answer:

Adding tabs is one of the easiest ways to ensure the text in your Word document is positioned precisely where you want it. Normally, you can do this simply by pressing the "Tab" key; if you're working inside a table, however, pressing that key simply moves you to the next cell. Inserting a tab character into a table cell is not impossible, nor does it require copying it from elsewhere in the document and pasting it in -- you simply need to use a different keyboard shortcut.

1

Place the text cursor in the cell where you want to insert the tab character, using either the mouse or the keyboard.

2

Hold down the "Ctrl" key and press "Tab" to insert the tab character. To insert more than one at a time, don't release the Ctrl key -- simply keep holding it and press "Tab" as many times as you need.

3

Adjust the position of the tab stops using the ruler, if necessary (see Resources). By default, tab stops are set every half inch. Repeat the process to insert tabs into other cells.
