Unit 4 Deliverable

Create a table with a description of the sites you have found and including a hyperlink to the web site to make it easy for someone else to use.

5

The Project

Your project must meet the following requirements:

Part 1: Create a two column table with at least 7 rows. You may add additional rows as needed to hold additional hyperlinks that you feel will be useful to you as you progress through your degree.

Part 2: Label the columns in the top row. The left column should be labeled "Hyperlink" and the right label column "Description." Format the text so they are Arial 12 and bold.

Part 3: Add, in the left column, working hyperlinks to your selected web sites for the six remaining rows. Additional rows may be added if you have more than six web sites.

6

The Project

Part 4: Provide, in the corresponding right column, the name of the web site, such as Google, and describe the information found there for each of your sites in the 6 remaining rows.

Part 5: Change the margins so your top and bottom margins are 1.25" and your left and right margins are 1.5".

Part 6: Place a title at the top of your paper and center aligned. Format the title in Bold, Italics, Arial, 18 font and a color of your choice.

7

The Project

Part 7: Add a Header with your name aligned right. Part 8: Footer with the page number aligned center. Part 9: Write a paragraph, below the table, explaining

how you plan to use the hyperlinks during your studies at Kaplan University. Add three bullet statements, below the paragraph as to why you chose the web sites you did.

Part 10: Ensure your paper is free of all spelling and grammatical errors.

Tables in Word

A table consists of rows and columns that intersect to form cells. The cells can then be filled with text, numbers, graphics or formulas. After you create the table, you can modify it in a variety of ways: by adding or deleting rows and columns adjusting column width, sorting text, and adding borders and shading

Creating Tables

To create a table in Word 2007, navigate to the Insert Ribbon by clicking on the Insert tab

Click on the Table button on the Insert Ribbon and mouse over the table configuration of rows and columns that you wish to insert.

This is by far the easiest way to create a table when you know exactly how many rows and columns you will need.

TO: Select a cell: Click the left edge of the cell Select a row: Click to the left of the row, just outside of the table Select a column: Click the column’s top gridline or border with the down-

row, or column Select the entire table: Click the table, then press [Alt][5] on the numeric

keypad. (NumLock must be off) Move to the next cell: Press [Tab] (When you are in the last cell of the last

row, this will create an additional row) Move to the previous cell: Press [Shift][Tab] You can also select rows, columns, or the entire table by clicking in the

table and using the Select commands on the Table menu.13

Creating Tables Inside Other Tables

You can use Draw Table to create tables inside other tables, or nested tables. Nested tables are particularly useful when you use a table to layout a page and then want to use a table to present information — for example, if you use a table to lay out the Web page for your department, you might want to insert in the layout a nested table illustrating the department’s quarterly earnings.

1. Click Draw Table in the tables command. The pointer changes to a pencil.

2. Position the pencil in the cell where you want the nested table (or a table inside another table).

3. Draw the new table. To define the table boundaries, draw a rectangle. Then draw the column and row lines inside the rectangle.

4. When you finish creating the nested table, click a cell, and start typing or insert a graphic.14
