     Right click the table in the Impress slide, and select Edit from the 
context menu. This opens a new view of this one slide with what looks like 
a compete spreadsheet with 8 black handles. Drag the bottom middle handle 
down to expose the entire table. Then click on the slide outside this 
"spreadsheet" to bring you back to the main page of Impress.
