Anyone have any experience with using the tables in Microsoft Word? If so, what's a good program I could buy, or book I could read, that will give me a crash course?

Thanks!

I think the best crash course is to play around with it-- there is a separate menu item for Tables within the application. If you do not have the applicition-- most public libraries install MS Word on their computers

The program also comes with extensive help documentation.

Yah, it's pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

All you have to do is follow the prompts. Click on Table, Insert Table, then choose the number of columns and rows. If you don't know, use the default and keep hitting your tab button and you'll get extra lines. Right click your mouse to insert, delete, merge, etc. MS Word is so easy. That's why it's the standard in the industry.

Use "Help" for help
I've explored my way through numerous Word functions with only the Help menu to guide me. Just do a search for "tables" and browse.
I also recommend the Dummies book series. Get the Microsoft Office version that you're currently using (2003, 2007, etc.) and keep it handy. The index will probably get you directly to the Word/Tables section, which will illustrate what to do along with step-by-step instructions.
I created an 8 page website years ago with MS 2000 FrontPage using only a Dummies book and Help. Both are fast and clear.
