In this tutorial, we’re going to add a table to our presentation, edit it and add an excel spreadsheet as well.

Go to Insert and then select table. Now there are two ways for you to insert a table in PowerPoint.

1. The first way is to hover your mouse over the squares and as you do, the tables will be created. Selecting squares to the right will create columns and selecting squares to the bottom will create rows.

2. The other option is by selecting “Insert Table” and choosing the number of rows and columns you want and then click OK.

If you want to add or delete rows or columns, place the cursor inside the table and right click. Go to Insert and you’ll get the options to add or delete.

Now, when you click on the table, you get two tabs on the top, the “Design” and “Layout” tabs. Go to the “Design” tab and go to the “Table Styles”

Choose the style and color you want for the table.

You can also:

1. Choose shading for a certain cell or group of cells in the table.

2. Choose to display borders

3. Add an effect to the table such as shadow or reflection

Another method of inserting a table in PowerPoint is by adding an excel spreadsheet. Go to “Insert”, then “Table” and select “Excel Spreadsheet”. The Table will appear and you can add values as if you’re working on a spreadsheet.

After you’re done, click outside the table and it will appear as follows:

However, using this method, you can’t add any style, color or effects to the table and it will be just as it is.
