How:

2. Enable the rich text editor
3. Create your table with the number of rows and columns you require
4. Create a Matrix of fields and add the number of rows you need
5. Next, embed the fields into the proper locations in the table by adding the field names into the cells and enclosing them in brackets {}

Creating a Matrix of Fields:

Testing: Test your working using different browsers as well as testing as a data entry form and as a survey to ensure the look and feel you want.
