how do i delete cells or duplicate cells in a table ?

[james]

I went to make a table with 8 colums and 3 rows, which turned out fine..but
now i need to make 3 more rows added on but half the size long with only 2
colums..
so i figure i can just duplicate or copy from my table 3 of these rows and
shirk it and delete 1 cell...but trying to get help on how to add or remove
cells seems the hard part

You could create a new table with your options and add it to the old, or add
three rows to the old and merge two of the cells.
