The Table Menu:
In addition to using the Properties palette to edit tables, you can also modify a table by using the table menu. In your table, make sure you have some cells, rows, columns, or the entire table selected (select whatever part of the table you want, depending on how you want to edit it). With those cells selected, go to the menu bar and select "Modify," and then "Table." Under the Table menu, a number of options will appear. These options in the table menu can allow you to edit your table in even more ways than before. Here is a list of features in this menu:

Select Table:
Just as the name implies, this option selects your entire table.

Merge Cells:
This is a helpful option that lets you merge multiple cells into one cell.

Split Cell:
By selecting or putting the insertion point in a cell, you can split that cell into any number of rows or columns.

Insert Row:
Put the insertion point where you want to insert a new row, and this option inserts one new row.

Insert Column:
Similar to the above, this option inserts one new column.

Insert Row of Columns:
This option gives you more flexibility than the above two options. You can choose how many rows or columns you want to add, and where you want them to be inserted.

Delete Row:
Select or put the insertion point in the row that you want to delete, and select this option.

Delete Column:
Same as the above, but deletes columns when selected.

Increase/Decrease Row/Column Span:
By selecting a row or column, you can make its span larger or smaller.

Please note that this menu can also be accessed by right-clicking inside of a table, and selecting the options as needed.
