What’s Noteworthy?
Note You can move table columns and rows only within the same table. If you want to move a column or row from one table to another, you need to use the copy and paste options, and then delete the column or row from the original table. To copy a column or row, right-click on the bar and select Copy. To paste the column or row in the other table, right-click on a bar next to the column or row where you want to paste it and select Paste (Above), (Below), (Left), or (Right). There is no cut option.
