You seem to have misunderstood Richard's instructions. Put the insertion
point (ie. the flashing caret/cursor position indicator) INSIDE the top
left hand cell of the table, as indicated by the * in the rough
illustration below:
--------------------
| *123 | 456 | 789 |
--------------------
| abcd | efg | hij |
--------------------
Assuming the top left hand cell contains the number 123, position the
flashing caret immediately to the left of the 1 and press Enter.
Hope this helps.
Dave
