Then select Autofit Column Width in the Format drop-down menu on the Home tab. First select all of the table contents (see Shortcut 2 above), including the header and total rows. To resize the widths of the columns so that the cells in the table display all of the contents, use this shortcut. Essentially, you follow the same process, but you drag your row (or rows) up or down instead of left/right. A vertical green bar will appear between columns as you drag the cursor to indicate where the column will end up when you release the mouse. Then drag it to where you want it to go, keeping the cursor in the header row. Then hover your cursor over the border of that cell until the cursor becomes a crosshairs.

To move a column, select the header cell in the column that you want to move. If you'd like to include those rows as well, simply press Ctrl + A a second time. This highlights everything except the header and total rows. To select the data for the entire table, you can press Ctrl + A. To select a row, hover your cursor near the left border of the table until it becomes a right-pointing arrow then left-click. Another weird but possibly useful quirk of Excel tables… If you have a cell in any subsequent row selected, Ctrl + Space will NOT scroll down. You can press Ctrl + Backspace to scroll up and activate the first cell in the selection/column. If you have the cell in the first row of the body of the table selected, Ctrl + Space will scroll down to the bottom of the table. In the video above I mention a small nuance with Ctrl + Space. The keyboard shortcut for selecting a column in Excel tables is Ctrl + Space. (If you left-click a second time, it will include the header cell in your selection.) Then left-click and it will select all of the cells in that column. To select a column in an Excel Table, hover over the top half of column's header cell, until your cursor becomes a down arrow. These shortcuts are for both mouse and keyboard and can be used on Windows or Mac. If you work with Excel Tables often, you're going to want to memorize several of the following shortcuts to make your life easier.
