If the active cell is in a Table, how do you quickly highlight the entire table?

To quickly highlight the entire table in a spreadsheet application like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets, you can use the following steps:

1. Click on any cell within the table. This activates the cell and indicates that you are working within that table.

2. Use the keyboard shortcut.

   • In Excel, press Ctrl + A once. If the active cell is in a table, this will select the entire table automatically.
   • In Google Sheets, a single press of Ctrl + A will select the table, and if you press it again, it will select the entire sheet.

3. Check the selection. Ensure that the entire table is highlighted by looking at the selection borders around it.

This method is efficient and saves time when you need to manipulate the entire table, such as formatting, copying, or deleting the data.
