Alan:


I'm Not even to that point.
I just found out how to insert a simple two column textual table as described.
How I missed it ???


1. I was attempting to use: Main Menu > Insert > Index and Tables (which brings up many choices)
2) Using Main Menu > Table (allows one to put in the simple table, I had ignored this thinking it was for Formatting a table). MY BAD!

Glad you sorted it out!


Your message has a nostalgic note for me. I haven't heard the term "main menu" applied to a word processing program since the late-1980s or early-1990s. My recollection is that two word processors, Mark of the Unicorn's FinalWord II, and Borland's Sprint, sported a main menu. The Sprint main menu was especially well done. I wonder whether this ancient technology could still serve as a model for how to organize hierarchical information in an efficient, easy-to-use, easy-to-remember, and discoverable way. I still have muscle memory of how to operate the Sprint main menu. Despite having used ribbons since their introduction 16 or 17 years ago, I still don't quite remember which ribbon contains which commands.
