How do you specify a table on windows creator? Windows does not have the attributes tab!!

The tutorials say "Navigate to the ‘Attributes’ tab in the Expression Editor and specify which of your tables to use in the first ‘table’ coordinate." but the Attributes tab does not exist in the Windows version of creator. I have tried TableCellValue(Table1,1,1) and all I ever get is 0 even though there are numbers in the table.

Do you have a table set up?
Yes, I set up the table first.
And you are trying to make a table referenced?
You have to reference the table, not just type it in. The referenced table is located in "Game" in "Attribute editor", in "Game" it will show your table at the very bottom. @The_Gamesalad_Guru has a good description on how to set them up.
I have attached a screen print of my situation. I don't see the table anywhere on the game attribute editor. You can see the screen print at

I searched @The_Gamesalad_Guru but I don't see anything on how to set up tables with the PC creator.
Wait!!! I figured it out! Thanks jdlcrater for getting me on track. I really appreciate your help. I am going to explain it in my words just in case someone like me reads this post later.
You stay in the expression editor the whole time. First you go to "functions" in the "display text box and chose TableCellValue. It will say TableCellValue(table, row, column). Then you highlight table and go to "attributes" and "game" and chose the table you want to use. It will now say TableCellValue((game.Table 1), row, column). Then you highlight the row and column and type in what numbers like 3 and 6. Now it will say TableCellValue((game.Table 1), 3, 6). Then you can click the green check mark and it will work.
