## Using Code

Use the [AddTable](/spreadnet/api/latest/online-win/FarPoint.Win.Spread/FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView.AddTable.html) method to add a table to a sheet.

## Example

This example code adds a table using cell data.

```csharp
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[1, 1].Text = "Last Name";
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[1, 2].Text = "Value";
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[2, 1].Text = "Smith";
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[2, 2].Value = 50;
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[3, 1].Text = "Vil";
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[3, 2].Value = 10;
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[4, 1].Text = "Press";
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].Cells[4, 2].Value = 78;
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].AddTable("table", 1, 1, 5, 2);
```

```vbnet
fpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(1, 1).Text = "Last Name"
fpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(1, 2).Text = "Value"
fpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(2, 1).Text = "Smith"
fpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(2, 2).Value = 50
fpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(3, 1).Text = "Vil"
fpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(3, 2).Value = 10
fpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(4, 1).Text = "Press"
fpSpread1.Sheets(0).Cells(4, 2).Value = 78
fpSpread1.Sheets(0).AddTable("table", 1, 1, 5, 2)
```

## Using the Spread Designer

1. In the work area, select the cell range where you want to add the table.
2. From the **Insert** menu, select **Table**.
3. Provide the cell range for the table and select **OK**.
4. From the **File** menu choose **Apply and Exit** to apply your changes to the component and exit Spread Designer.
