While editing table content may be adequate in some situations, you may find that what you really need to do requires adding a new Field or Record to the table. Tools for editing table structure are available in the Edit pull down menu. Add record adds an empty record to the bottom of a table. Delete record removes the currently selected record from the table. Add field adds an empty field to the right side of the table.
Delete field removes the selected field from the table.
All of these tools are straightforward except for Add field. When you add a field, it is necessary to set some parameters for the field. Take some time to choose how you will set up your table because these options cannot be edited once they are set. Once you have made edits to the structure of the table, all of the tools for editing table content can be used for populating the new cells.
