Answer 1

Dear Jessica A,

Good day! Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum!

Based on your description, I understand that you want to add another column and find how to extend table lines.

You can refer AI answer about resize table. I also attach the article about Resize a table by adding or removing rows and columns in Excel for your reference.

If you encounter difficulties while resizing the table, please inform me how you created it; if possible, you may also provide a screenshot of the problematic table. Since the AI cannot respond to you directly, please let me know if you experience any issues.

Your confirmation would be very helpful in ensuring you receive the most suitable support!

If you’re able to share a bit more about your situation, I might be able to suggest some helpful next steps. 

Kindly let me know when there are updates or if you need further assistance. Any updates you’re able to share would be really helpful. I appreciate your time and look forward to hearing how things are going! 

Thank you for your time and patience.

Answer 2

If this is an Excel table, there are two easy ways to extend it with another column:

1. Click anywhere in the table.
2. Go to Table Design.
3. Select Resize Table.
4. Select the new range so it includes the extra column.
5. Click OK.

Another option is to type a new heading in the column immediately to the right of the table. Excel can automatically extend the table to include that new column.

If the issue is that new adjacent cells are not being added into the table automatically, turn that option back on:

1. Go to File > Options.
2. Select Proofing.
3. Click AutoCorrect Options...
4. Open the AutoFormat As You Type tab.
5. Select Include new rows and columns in table.
6. Click OK, then OK.

If the table lines or borders do not look right after adding the column, resize the table range first so the new column is part of the table, then adjust the column width as needed.
