Microsoft Office allows you to mark the first row of a table as table headers in both PowerPoint and Word. The general process is to find the table formatting options in the the ribbon and check Header Row for each table.
Color Contrast and Table Design
In all the versions of Microsoft Office, designating a Header Row can trigger a change in the table appearance. It is important that the formatting of each cell contains sufficient color contrast.
Note that additional options for banded rows/columns are compatible with screen readers and can be useful for sighted users. However, contrast should be checked if the cells are colored.

The Gap Width option in Excel for Mac 2011 controls the spacing of bars in a column graph. Decreasing this percentage shrinks the empty space between columns by widening the columns themselves. Choosing a zero Gap Width effectively merges all columns side-by-side to format a histogram-style chart. Because changing the Gap Width on any column automatically applies the change to all columns, you only need to make this change once.
1.Click the sheet tab in Excel for Mac 2011 that contains the chart you need to format.
2.Double-click any bar in the column chart to open the Options panel.
3.Reduce the value in the Gap Width field to narrow the spacing and click 'OK.' This number represents the gap size in relation to the column size. As an example, entering '100%' creates a gap equal to the width of the column and entering '10%' creates a gap one-tenth the width of the column.
