Position the mouse over the right-hand side of a column, then drag the mouse left or right to change the width of the column
Position the mouse over the bottom of a row, then drag the mouse up or down to change the height of the row
To change the format of cells of the table, select the cells, then right-click to show options to insert and delete rows and columns, and to change the width or height of selected columns or rows proportionally using the Distribute commands
