To insert a table, click the Insert button in the table dialog. The default table size is two rows, two columns, but you can adjust that in a number of ways:

After you have created a table, there are a number of ways to modify it.

Tip: Blank table cells do not appear with borders around them. If you want to have a blank cell with a border, put a non-breaking space in that cell.

Note: To turn off the WYSIWYG features of the table editor, click the WYSIWYG Tables checkbox in the View menu in the main view. (With large tables containing many cells, it is sometimes better to edit with WYSIWYG turned off.)
