      Is there any way to split an Excel 365 table? It seems very strange to me that Microsoft would think that is important for tables in Word, but not for tables in Excel.

      The cited video specifically says it applies to Excel 365 although, as you point out, their example in the video is using Word.

        Microsoft's documentation is only a pale shade of what it used to be.

         

        Moving ranges of cells is much easier in Excel than in Word, so the developers probably didn't think it necessary to provide a dedicated command for splitting a range or table.

        You can submit a suggestion from within Excel, through File > Feedback > Send a suggestion.
