How do I add cell padding in a Word table?

Hi-
I want the text in the cells of my table ( 35rows x 3 columns) to have "air" around it. There is text in every cell and I'm thinking of the HTML attribute "cell-padding" as an example of what I want to do.

How do I add cell padding in my Word document table?

Thanks.

The setting is "Cell Margins". Get there by the following:
Menu: Table/Table Properties, Tab: Cell, Button: Options,



--rms

Rob has given you direction for cell margins which may be sufficient for
your requirement, but in the same dialog you'll also find a setting for
Default Cell Spacing. That setting more closely corresponds to the "padding"
attribute & you can also use a variety of Border settings.
