To insert a table into your document, navigate to the part of the document where you want the table to appear. Once there, click on the INSERT tab on the Ribbon. Then, click the TABLE button. A drop-down menu will extend that will let you insert an on-the-fly table (where you highlight the grid on the menu with the number of rows/columns that you require), a custom table (where you choose the Insert Table option), or a quick table (where you select a table template from the Quick Table menu).
