97.1k

Formatting tables in MS word can be done by specifying the table style.Tables are a staple in most workplaces. They're used for all kinds of things, from reporting to marketing reports. We can format the table according to our needs. For example, if table is about jobs that require specific skills, then we should format the table according to the skills required by that particular job. For example, if a person is hired for an engineer position with specific skill sets, then we should format the table accordingly so that it's readable and understandable by other users.

Table style is a style of writing in which the table is placed at the start of the body of text. The normal style does not place tables at all. It can be used as an alternative to rich text, and akin to fixed width texts such as those produced by Microsoft Word. The table style is ideal for command-line interfaces and web content where tables are not required to be large enough to hold all the information that will need to be displayed. The normal style could also help with agile development where long blocks of text are often created for each section or component within a project, but then reduced down into one or two sentences after they have been developed.
