The most effective use of a table in PowerPoint is its ability to compare information at a glance. At the same time, creating large, hyper detailed tables in a presentation can backfire and generate frustration since most presentations move quickly or are projected at a distance making it harder to read quickly. The most effective use of a table in a presentation is as a summary of simple comparative information.\r\n\r\nThere are the four methods that PowerPoint provides to add tables into a presentation. Let's take a look at each method.\r\n<h2>First Method<\/h2>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open a new slide using the <strong>Table and Content<\/strong> slide. Enter the Title of the slide, then click on the <strong>Insert<\/strong> tab.\r\n<img class=\"alignnone wp-image-3318 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/courses-images\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3008\/2020\/01\/04002552\/Module_11_Table_0.png\" alt=\"PowerPoint screenshot of open presentation highlighting how to insert a new slide for a table.\" width=\"1250\" height=\"760\" \/> <img class=\"alignnone wp-image-3319 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/courses-images\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3008\/2020\/01\/04002601\/Module_11_Table_1.png\" alt=\"PowerPoint screenshot of open presentation with a new slide ready for adding a table.\" width=\"1253\" height=\"761\" \/><\/li>\r\n \t<li>Select the <strong>Table<\/strong> button and drag the cursor over the number of rows and columns you want to use in the slide. The table will now appear in the slide, colored in the presentation theme colors.\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Type the information into the table.<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you wish to add an extra row, a short-cut way is to place the cursor in the bottom right, last cell and press the <strong>tab<\/strong> key.
