How do I copy a word table and paste it with the same formatting
I have recieved a very long table from a grantee, now I have to copy this
table and add it on to my report. However whenever I do this word completely redoes the formatting. I don't have time to redo all the formatting for this huge table and the other 24 I have to include in the report. How can I get Word to paste the same exact table with the same exact formatting? I would really appreciate any help. Thanks |

How do I copy a word table and paste it with the same formatting
Are the tables formatted identically in the grantee's document? If the
tables use distinctive styles, then use the organizer to copy those styles to your document (Tools - Templates and Add-ins - Organizer). If the tables don't use distinctive styles, another way is to create new styles for each distinct type of formatting in the tables, then copy those styles into your document (using the organizer), and apply the styles to the copied documents (although, this last step shouldn't be necessary). Another way, assuming your report can withstand the formatting shock, would be to attach the grantee's document template to your report (Tools - Templates and Add-ins - Attach). -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Please respond in the newsgroups so everyone can follow along. http://www.herbtyson.com "daniel-Southafrica" wrote in message ...
