Troubleshooting

I can't access the Word table formatting tools and menus from within PowerPoint.

The Word table in the PowerPoint presentation must be selected in order to view these options. To select this table, double-click it.

I added some additional rows to my table, and now it doesn't fit in the slide.

You can resize your table to fit, but you may hide table text from view by doing this. If you haven't already invested a lot of time in creating and formatting your table, you may be better off deleting the table and starting again.

I applied several formatting options to my table, and I don't like the results.

Click the down arrow next to the Undo button on the Standard toolbar to see a list of formatting tasks you can undo.
