Hi Sara

Sigil is fine for creating tables in ebooks. I've done loadsa em.

This simple(ish!) HTML code will give you a basic 3x3 table.

<tr> defines a row in the table.

<th> defines a column header (which will appear as bold in the ebook). The first row contains the column headings.

<td> defines a cell of data within the table.



<table>
<tr>
<th scope="col">Column Heading 1</th>

<th scope="col">Column Heading 2</th>

<th scope="col">Column Heading 3</th>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Row 1 Cell 1</td>

<td>Row 1 Cell 2</td>

<td>Row 1 Cell 3</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>Row 2 Cell 1</td>

<td>Row 2 Cell 2</td>

<td>Row 2 Cell 3</td>
</tr>
</table>


You can also use CSS to modify the format of the table, but that's a little bit trickier and best studied with a clear tutorial online.
