Inserting an Excel Table into Word and Resizing it to Fit
  1. Open both your Excel file and Word document.
  2. Select the table you want to insert into Word by clicking and dragging over the cells.
  3. Right-click on the selected table and choose "Copy" or press "Ctrl+C" on your keyboard.
  4. Click where you want to insert the table in your Word document.
  5. Right-click and choose "Paste" or press "Ctrl+V" on your keyboard to paste the table into your Word document.
  6. Click on the table to select it.
  7. Click on the "Table Tools" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
  8. In the "Layout" section of the ribbon, click on the "AutoFit" button.
  9. Choose "AutoFit to Contents" from the dropdown menu.
  10. Manually resize the table by clicking and dragging on the corners of the table if necessary.

And that's it! Your Excel table should now be inserted into your Word document and resized to fit.
