Table Builds
You create object builds for slides with tables the same way you create any other
object build. However, with tables, you can animate the table itself by making it
appear onscreen row by row, column by column, cell by cell, or in a variety of other
ways.
To set up a table build:
1 Select the table and assign it a build effect, direction, duration, and order, as described
earlier.
2 Choose an option from the Delivery pop-up menu.
 All At Once moves the whole table as a single object.
 By Row moves the table onto the screen row by row.
 By Column moves the table onto the screen column by column.
 By Cell moves the table onto the screen one cell at a time.
 By Row Content moves the entire empty table onto the screen, and then inserts the
content row by row.
 By Column Content moves the entire empty table onto the screen, and then inserts
the content column by column.
 By Cell Content moves the entire empty table onto the screen, and then adds the
content cell by cell.
Note: All elements of a table use the same build style.
