Fill in tables

Each table on a form consists of one or more columns and one or more rows. You fill in a table by tabbing from column to column and row to row and entering data.

If the table in a form doesn't have enough rows for the information you need to enter, you can insert rows. If there are empty rows when you've finished entering information, you can remove them. If the form author has configured a table to include a scroll bar, a bar with command buttons appears on the right side of the table. You may see the buttons when you first open the form, or you may see them only when you tab into the table. These buttons allow you to scroll up and down through your table entries, delete a row, and add a row.

NOTE  The scrolling buttons are enabled only if information is entered in all the rows of the table.

The buttons are as follows:

Scroll one row up in the table. Scrolls up one row at a time.
Scroll multiple rows up in the table. Scrolls up to display the top row of the table.
Insert a row above the current row in the table. Adds one row above the row your cursor is on.
Delete the current row in the table. Deletes the row your cursor is on. If you delete the top row of a table, you can keep clicking the Delete button to remove each subsequent row, one at a time.
Scroll multiple rows down in the table. Scrolls down to display the bottom row of the table.
Scroll one row down in the table. Scrolls down one row at a time.

You can also add a new row to a scrollable table by pressing Tab after you enter information in the bottom row of the table. This works only if you have information entered in all rows of the table.
