If you just want to add an extra row at the end of the table all you have to do is hit tab while in the last cell, shroudlupe.

If you want to add a row in the middle or top of a table, highlight the row above or below where you want the new one to be and then go to the "Table" menu. Go down to the "insert" option and choose whichever is appropriate from "Rows below" or Rows above".

(If you want to insert more than one row ,then select multiple rows at the first step above, rather than just one , and it will insert the same number of rows that you have selected).

Another way of doing it, after selecting a row in a table, is to simply access the contextual menu by holding down the control key and clicking, or by "right clicking", and then select "insert rows" from the options presented.

Ok, that looks like you have what's also known as Word 2008.

After going to http://www.amazon.com and searching Word Mac 2008, I got this link to show that it has a book inside about Word Mac 2008:

http://www.amazon.com/Office-2008-Macintosh-Missing-Manual/dp/059651431X/ref=sr1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1274458466&sr=8-1#reader059651431X

Now I don't have a valid Amazon account to view the book, but you can look on page 127 to learn more about tables for Microsoft Word.

By the way, I think I have the 2008 version although I bought my MB Pro in 2010 because when I transferred all the data from the previous MacBook it transferred the older version. Is there a way to replace it again? I think I would find the 2010 version if I logged into the other account on my MB Pro which was from scratch, not a transfer-account.

There is, as yet, no 2010 version for Mac. The 2008 version is the latest.
