Use Excel2007 to automatically Add table field header features

Excel 2007 has the ability to automatically add table field headers. When we enter table data in Excel2007, if you apply a table style to the table, as long as you enter data in a blank cell to the right of the table, Excel2007 automatically adds a new field heading and automatically identifies and applies the appropriate name and format. You just need to focus on the input of the next important data without having to spend any effort on the formatting and appearance of the table.

If we continue to widen the table to the right, "Sunday 2" and "Sunday 3" will appear in the title bar. You should pay attention to it when you use it.

We retract the table range back to the initial width (two columns), revise the previous "Monday" to "Sunday", broaden the table, and see how Excel 2007 behaves.

We see that the table field heading automatically generates "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", and "Saturday" after "Sunday", and "Saturday 2" appears if you continue to widen the table.
