Inserting and deleting columns and rows

Unless you are lucky or clever enough to choose the right number of columns and rows for your table when you create it, you need to add or delete columns and rows as you construct your table. On the Table Tools | Layout tab, OneNote offers commands to do just that.

Insert a column or row

  1. Click in the column or row adjacent to where you want to insert a new column or row.

    • To insert a column, click anywhere in an existing column to the left or right of the column that you want to insert.

    • To insert a row, click anywhere in an existing row above or below the row that you want to insert.

  2. On the ribbon, click the Table Tools | Layout contextual tab.

  3. In the Insert group, click one of the Insert buttons:

    • Click Insert Left (or press Ctrl+Alt+E) or Insert Right (or press Ctrl+Alt+R) to insert a column.

    • Click Insert Above or Insert Below (or press Ctrl+Enter) to insert a row.

Tip

You can insert more than one column or row at a time by selecting cells in more than one column or row before clicking an Insert button. For example, to insert two columns, drag the mouse to select any adjacent cells in two existing columns and then click the Insert Left or Insert Right button.

Delete a column or row

  1. Click in the column or row that you want to delete.

  2. On the ribbon, click the Table Tools | Layout contextual tab.

  3. In the Delete group, click Delete Columns or Delete Rows. The selected columns or rows immediately disappear, along with their data.

To delete more than one column or row at a time, select the columns or rows (by dragging over two or more cells in the same column or row and then clicking a Select button) and then click a Delete button.

Try This

Need to delete an entire table, maybe to start all over? Click anywhere in the table, click Layout, and then click Delete Table. (Click the Undo button immediately if you regret deleting your table.)
