You can even paste a table copied from e.g. Excel into LyX by following these instructions: In LyX, insert a table with the same dimensions as the one in the excel. Place the mouse cursor in the top left cell of the table. From the menu of LyX, choose Edit → Paste Special → Plain Text, Join Lines.
An alternative option is to programmatically modify the csv file to produce a LaTeX table with the shell code below. This gives you total control over the formatting of the final table and does not require extra packages. The caveat is that some of the substitutions need to be done carefully to avoid altering the content of the table.
Load the booktabs package and replace \hline with \toprule, \midrule, and \bottomrule as needed, add a bit of vertical whitespace halfway through the table via \addlinespace. Aside: The user guide of the booktabs package is chock-full of good advice on table design. It' well worth a read -- and re-read!
Avoid vertical space above bullet list in LaTeX table. 0. Multirow table with bullet point. 1.
6. Perhaps I over automate, but I'd want to have a macro \CayleyTable that produces the Cayley table of the corresponding cyclic group, so that the commands: \CayleyTable{3} \CayleyTable{4} \CayleyTable[x]{9} would produce: (An optional argument gives the name of the generator, which defaults to a).
39. The LaTeX3 package tabularray provides a new way to typeset tables in a keyval way. This allows the separation of content and style, which can be very usefull in a lot of cases. However, almost all guides for typesetting tables are not written for the tabularray package, making it difficult for new users to use the package.
Remove the \resizebox es, replacing with a suitable font size command if necessary (e.g. \small). The third argument of the \resizebox (the tabular itself) should be retained. You can also automate the table creation. If you have a list of CSV values, you could use the csvtools package.
If most of the table consists of math-mode material, it's preferable to use an array environment instead of a tabular environment. Any text-mode material in the table can be handled by encasing it in \text directives (requires the amsmath or the amstext package): \documentclass{article} \usepackage{amsmath} % for "\text" macro. \begin{document}
AFAIK, there are two packages for this diag cell in table. One is slashbox, the other is makecell, which may produce better result sometimes. Here is an example of \diaghead in makecell: {Diag\\Column Head I}{Diag Column\\Head II}&. And it would be even better on screen if you use pict2e package together with slashbox or makecell.
Since you use Word, have a look at excel2latex, a plugin for MS Excel which allows you to create tables there and automatically generate corresponding LaTeX code. TeXMaker moreover has an integrated table assistant.
