In the Word document:
Insert a table where you want to add data.
Click the CoAuthor Word Add-in to open the side panel.
Create and select your table.
Click the Prompt button, then choose Table Population.
Enter a title in the TITLE field.
Add a source:
Click the plus (+) icon in the top-right corner of the Sources box.
Select the checkbox next to the source containing the data you want to use.
Click Done.
Save your changes.
Note: If you forget to click the Save button, a pop-up will appear prompting you to save your changes before navigating away.
