tables in PowerPoint

[Genevieve]

I'm having some trouble creating a table in PPT. I want to have for example 3
columns: 1 inch, 1/4 inch, and 1/2 inch. I want to repeat this set 3 times in
the table. Is there a way to copy and paste the set, rather than sizing all
of the columns?

It would probably be simplest if you create your table in Excel and then
copy/paste special it.
