• Microsoft PowerPoint 2000 For Windows

SUMMARY

For each text block in PowerPoint, PowerPoint accepts a maximum number of nineteen user defined tab spaces. If you try to insert more than nineteen tabs, nothing happens.

MORE INFORMATION

If you need this many tabs to create a table, use any of the following methods:

• Use the Table AutoLayout feature.



• Use an Excel worksheet to format a table and insert it on a PowerPoint slide.



• Use the Word table feature.



• Use a Microsoft Graph datasheet. To create a table in Graph, follow these steps:



1. Insert a new Microsoft Graph object.



2. In Graph, select the Datasheet window.



3. Type the data on the datasheet as you want it to appear in your presentation.
   
   NOTE: Datasheets do not support many table formatting features, such as customizable borders, adjustable row height, and word wrap.



4. Highlight the data you want to include in your presentation.



5. On the Edit menu, click Copy.



6. End your Graph editing session.



7. If necessary, delete the Graph object that was created in your presentation.



8. On the Edit menu, click Paste Special. Select Picture and click Paste.



Your table is pasted into your slide as a picture. If you want to remove the gridlines, double-click the picture to turn it into several PowerPoint objects and remove the gridlines one at a time.
