Hi Don

I am using 2.0.3 rc5 on Mandriva 2006.

If I display (View-Toolbars-Table) the Table Toolbar it has icons with
green bars on which allow  insertion of a row (or column) after the
position of the cursor.


2.0.2 offers View >> Toolbars >> Standard | Customize.  There is no "insert"
that I can see.


Another method is to right click in the table, choose Row - Insert and
you can choose to have as many as you wish inserted before or after the
cursor.


That was what I tried doing.  Per my OP, It automatically inserts the new
row at the end of the table, not where the cursor is.  I'm not sure if
that's a bug, or the intended effect.
