Adjusting the rows and columns in a Microsoft PowerPoint 98 or PowerPoint 2000 table can help balance slide content and control the overall look of a slide.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    Position the pointer over the row or column line you want to adjust until the pointer becomes a double-headed arrow.

  2. Step 2

    Drag the row or column line to where you want it.

Tips & Warnings
  • To adjust column height, you need to work in rows instead of columns.
  • In PowerPoint 98, you can also use the table-editing window to specify precise column and row measurements. Select the row or column you want to change, then choose Cell Height or Width from the Table menu.
