Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2018 Classroom In A Book

[frontier logic]

I am new to Dreamweaver, and  I subscribed to Dreamweaver CC the fore part of this year and am using Adobe's Classroom In A Book 2018 for trying to learn this software.  For the most part, it works just fine, but I have run into some problems in Chapter 7 - Working With Text, Lists, And Tables.  In the Creating and styling tables section begining on page 213 starting with item # 19, the text instructs to "Press Tab" to insert a new row in the already created table. I'm using Windows 10 and Dreamweaver has been Updated, but the new row does not insert when I follow the instructions.  I realize that I'm using a 2018 insturction manual with Dreamweaver CC 2020.  Can anyone offer some insight or work-arounds?  In advance, Thank You!

It's easier to work with data tables in Design view or more specifically Split with Design view.  See my screenshot below.  Put your cursor by the leading edge of your table row until you see a tiny arrow.  Right-click, select Table > Insert row.   DW inserts a row above the selected one.

Personally, I prefer working directly with code.  It's faster, more precise and with code hints and auto code completion turned on, you will learn more.

By following directions, I was able to insert a new row.

Your advice is flawless: i.e. perfection!

Thank you Nancy!
