Move rows in Word Table

[AlanHo]

I have been shown an easy way to move a row - or rows - up or down a Word Table.

I used to insert a new blank row where I wanted the row to be moved to, copied and pasted the original row into the new position, then deleted the old row. Never again.

Here's the trick:

1. Place your cursor in a cell on the row that is to be moved. (To move multiple consecutive rows highlight at least one cell in each row.)

2. Use Shift + Alt + up/down arrow keys to make the move.

That's it - your row will move through the table allowing you to settle it into a new location with minimum hassle.

Thanks for that, Alan. I use tables an awful lot and it will be very useful.

Indeed. Very useful. Esp for the doc I am working on at the moment. :)
