Using a Table Header Row or Column

Use header rows and columns to label the data in rows and columns. Header rows and
columns are formatted so that they stand out from the other rows and columns. A
header row consists of the topmost cell in each column. A header column consists of
the leftmost cell in each row.

multiple columns.

row can contain the same content as any other row, but its formatting makes it visually
prominent.

Here are ways to add or delete a footer row:

m

Select the table, and then select or deselect Footer Row in the Table pane of the Table
Inspector.
