Excel Tables in Word
Hi,
I have created a very large table in word and now I need to copy it into my word document. The problem is that when I insert the table into word (copy, paste) the table is so large. The fonts are the same. I don't understand why it is so huge in word. I have also tried copying the table as a picture but the same thing. When I insert the files as an object, the situation gets even worse. The excel table span 5 pages landscape, letter. What is the best way to show this table in my word document, without using a ton of pages. Thank you, Samm |

Maybe you can do it by using the table as the datasource for a catalog (or
in Word XP and later it is called "directory") type mailmerge. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis.

Excel Tables in Word
Hi ?B?U2FtYW50aGE=?=,
I have created a very large table in word and now I need to copy it into my word document. The problem is that when I insert the table into word (copy, paste) the table is so large. The fonts are the same. I don't understand why it is so huge in word. Is the Zoom perhaps not 100% in Excel? The excel table span 5 pages landscape, letter. Are you pasting into Word pages in landscape orientation, or portrait? Have you checked the margins in the Word document?

Thanks Cindy,
The zoom was 100%, I had to finish it yesterday so what I did was just PDF'd the document and the tables from excel (because they would print properly) then added them together. That didn't really solve the problem, but it was a solution.
