Automatic resizing when adding a column or row to a table please!!

[Guest]

I inserted a table via the slide layout pane. Then I added a column and a
row via the table tool bar. However, the table didn't resize itself like a
placeholder/text box would. The added column and row are outside the slide
and I had to resize the table manually. Is there a better way? Am I missing
something?

PPT does its best to size the table to the placeholder when you first
double-click to add the table. After that, though, you're on your own.

Echo,

Thanks for your response. I was hoping that there was a better way. Guess
not.
