Hi,

OK my version of excel and word is 2002. If I copy and paste into word
from the excel spreadsheet and then told it to link to source - where do I
find the NAMED RANGE that you have mentioned.

Thanks

Hi ?B?Tmlja2kgS2luZw==?=,

How can i allow in Word for a table to increase or decrease in size when
linked to an excel spreadsheet that could change in size every month?

Difficult to describe exact steps without knowing the version of Office
involved and how you brought the Excel table into Word, but...

The basic principle is to base the link to the Excel data on a NAMED RANGE
in the Excel workbook. When things are added to the named range, the
information that comes across the link will match. The tricky part being,
if you're adding things to the bottom of the range, making sure the named
range expands to include them.

Is this making any sense to you?
