Editing a table
InDesign offers a wide array of table editing features: add or delete rows and columns, cut
or copy and paste selected cells, change the column and row height, split or merge cells,
and much more.
Selecting cells, rows, and columns

Using the type tool , do any of the following:
Click inside a table, or select text, and then choose Table > Select > Cell.

beginning of the cell.
