You can remove categories and subcategories temporarily, or you can discontinue
using them altogether.
Here are ways to uncategorize rows:

Reorganize in the toolbar, or choose Show More Options from a reference tab’s pop-up
menu to open the Reorganize window. Deselect “Insert Categories from the following.”
To restore categorizing, select “Insert Categories from the following.”
You can also choose Table > Disable All Categories. To restore categories, choose Table
> Enable All Categories.
To discontinue categorizing a table, in the Reorganize window click the Delete (–)
m
button adjacent to each category and subcategory.
You can also click the cell reference pop-up menu for a category row at the topmost
level and choose Delete Categories.

m
window click the Delete (–) button adjacent to the column.
You can also choose Delete Categories from the column’s reference tab pop-up menu.
Managing Table Categories and Subcategories
Here are techniques for managing categories:
To move a row from one category to another, select the row and drag it into the
m
new category.
To move a category within a table, click the reference tab for its category row and drag
the category to the new location.
To move a category up or down a level, click Reorganize in the toolbar, or choose
