Question about exporting Word table to Access

I have a Table in Word 97 where the cells are formatted like a sheet
of labels, and it is used to enter contact information from a internet
voice mail system. This was an existing set up when I started. I would
like to get the data into Access 97.  Once a sheet is done it is sent
directly to the printer to be printed on a sheet of labels.

The data is in the cells like this:

First Name Last Name
Address
Address 2
City, State Zip

I have tried exporting but in the text conversion it goes by rows so I
end up with all the names on the first row, addresses and not in fixed
width format.  Any suggestions on how I could get these into an
exportable format for an Excel 97or Access 97 import?

Thanks,

Pat
