"Hi, my name is Dave Andrews. Today I'm going to show you how to make a table in Word. Let's open up Word by clicking on our start button. We go to All Programs. Let's find Microsoft Office. And just open up Word. Now what we're going to do, is insert a table here. To do so, go to the insert tab at the top. And click on table. This brings up the Insert Table interface. And let's you choose how large of a table that you want to create. As you can see, if I had scrolled down here. I've created a table that has a lot of rows and a lot of columns. It's kind of, highlighting as I move my mouse over. I'm also going to create a real simple table. Let's say, a two by two. I'm just going to highlight the top two rows and cells. And click there. And now, as you can see, our table is appeared inside of Microsoft Word. I can type data in here. And then type data below it. I'm going to even type text over here. And as you can see, our table is separating these rows and columns of text from each other. You can resize your table fields by simply clicking on the line that separates them. And just dragging that over. My name is Dave Andrews. And I've just showed you how to create a table in Word."
