Changing Column Widths in OneNote 2003 Tables

A frequently asked question about the fairly primitive table support in OneNote 2003 is how to change the column widths in the tabbed pseudo-tables that OneNote supports.

If you want to adjust the column widths in a OneNote table the following instructions show you how. I assume you are about to create a two column table.

1. Move the cursor to the position on page where you want to create the table.
2. Type one or more letters then hit the Tab key once.
3. Move the mouse to the position of the cursor. A four headed arrow should appear about 0.5cm to the left of the cursor.
4. Right click on the four headed arrow and select the Resize Previous Column option (the last on the context menu).
5. A two headed horizontal arrow should appear in front of where the four headed arrow was positioned. Depress the left mouse button and if you drag to the left the width of the previous column is descreased. If you drag to the right that increases the column width.

Simply repeat the operation if you don't get the column width exactly as you want it first time. If the width of the second column is to be adjusted repeat the operations described for that column.
