Hello,

is there a keyboard shortcut to delete a row in a table in Word (rather than right-clicking > delete > entire row)?

Thank you

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 64.0.3282.167

    Hello xuorel

    If you want to save yourself some effort!
    - Hover over the ribbon => Right click => then Customize the ribbon
    - At the bottom => Keyboard shortcuts => Customize
    - Category: All commands
    - Commands (they are in alphabetical order): DeleteTableRow
    - Assign a keyboard shortcut: alt+x for example, because it’s unassigned
    - Assign => OK

    That still requires two finger contortions... :))

      Good evening,

      Uh... to delete a line: select (by clicking to the left of the line) and Backspace!
      I don't know if it can get any simpler!!! :)

      Note: ;)
      Backspace allows you to delete the selected cells
      while
      Delete only allows you to remove the content of the selected cells.
