MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / December 2007converting word table to excel
Is there a way to convert a table now set up in Word, to Excel? I can't find it in the help screens (only converting the other way....) Have you tried a simple Copy and Paste? it works for me best wishes  SignatureBernard V Liengme Microsoft Excel MVP www.stfx.ca/people/bliengme remove caps from email > Is there a way to convert a table now set up in Word, to Excel? I can't > find it in the help screens (only converting the other way....) I tried that, but it seems impossible to work with. Everything I try fails, (after I copy/ paste) ie. I inserted another row, then attempted to re. number rows- got an error msg. "This operation requires the merged cells to be identically sized". Other things gave different error msgs. ie "cannot change part of a merged cell" > Have you tried a simple Copy and Paste? it works for me > best wishes >> Is there a way to convert a table now set up in Word, to Excel?
