Yes, he has!  I just read that chapter aloud to my boys last night.
PoA,  p.228.  Professor Trelawney was joining the Christmas feast:

"Certainly, Certainly,", said Dumbledore, his eyes twinkling.  "Let me
draw you up a chair--"

And he did indeed draw a chair in midair with his wand, which revolved
for a few seconds before falling with a thud...

And there was the time he conjured "hundreds of squashy purple sleeping
bags" when the students had to sleep in the Great Hall on Halloween.  p.
162-163, PoA

So, things can be conjured out of thin air, but they don't last.

Pat, who wishes she could magic her house clean!
