Question:
How do you separate tables in Word?

I'm using Microsoft Word 2010, where I made two tables. Only later did I realize that I'd accidently made them in one graph.

You see, I made one graph, then I used copy and paste to create a similar table below. However, I didn't realize that, by doing that, I made it all one (apparently) unseperable table. Can I split them to form 2 seperate tables?

Put the cursor in the row where you want the split to be.



The Table Tools contextual tab will appear. Click on the Layout tab and in the Merge group click on the Split table icon.



Done!

Make the table 3 cells wide! Remove the top and bottom borders for the middle cell and make the middle cell as wide or narrow as you want to give separation to the other cells. When you remove cell borders, be sure to view gridlines which are visible on the screen but do not print. Go to Table Tools Layout tab and in the Table group check View Gridlines. When printed it will look as you want- 2 tables.

click on the beginning of the cell table you want to separate. click on the insert button (after Home) then you can see page break below it, then click.
