I've been trying to link data from an Excel spread sheet to a table in a Word
template by copying and pasting the text or numbers with the 'Match
destination formatting and link to Excel' option.

The linking works fine, but whenever I change the data in Excel or close and
re-open the Word document, extra lines seem have been created before and
after the link in the word table. Any idea why this is happening? Or how I
can create the links in a different way?

Thanks.
