Nesting tables

A nested table is a table within a table. You can configure a nested table as you would any other table; however, its width is limited by the width of the cell in which it appears.

To nest a table within a table cell:

1 Do one of the following:
Click in the cell where you want to insert the second table and choose Insert > Table.
Click in the cell where you want to insert the second table.
Drag the Table button from the Common category of the Objects panel to the cell where you want to insert the second table.
2 Specify the table properties in the Insert Table dialog box, and click OK.
