If you need a table in your presentation, you can create it directly in PowerPoint. Alternatively, you can create the table in Word and copy and paste it over to your PowerPoint presentation. Here’s how to do it.
Go ahead and open up both the Word document with our table to be copied and the PowerPoint into which you’ll paste it. Once you’re ready, find and select the table in the Word doc. To select the table, hover over the table and then select the icon at the top-left.

Over in the “Table” group, click the “Select” option.
Once selected, a drop-down menu will appear. Here, select the “Select Table” option.
