Saving a word document as an excel spreadsheet
What does the text look like in Word? Is it in tabbed lines or in a table?
It *can* be done. -- JoAnn Paules Microsoft MVP - Publisher How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 "Moof" wrote in message ... that didn't help either.

Saving a word document as an excel spreadsheet
Very often, after pasting into Excel, the formatting of cells won't be
wonderful. But, if you select the cells that contain the pasted information, you can usually obtain acceptable formatting by chipping away. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "JoAnn Paules" wrote in message ...

Saving a word document as an excel spreadsheet
I guess you could say it's in a table. There is a border all around the page,
which I can't seem to get rid of. Also, pages 2 and 3 wouldn't copy and paste. There should be a way to send the questioned document so that there isn't all this guessing. I have several more documents that need to be in excel format, and I REALLY don't want to have to type all of them! ˜º "JoAnn Paules" wrote: What does the text look like in Word?

oops - I think you were referring to the original word document??? It is kind
of hard to explain. Mostly just text (maybe tabbed). "Moof" wrote: I guess you could say it's in a table. There is a border all around the page, which I can't seem to get rid of.

Saving a word document as an excel spreadsheet
Moof: Converting as such is not the problem, but to get a sensible structure is. The leading principle to remember is that a tab divider prompts Excel to put the next data in the next cell on the same row, while a hard return prompts a new line (row). Pls tell me more about what the Word structure is now and what the desired Excel structure , so I can try to guide you more concretely.

I've looked at this document. Is the issue that you want to be able to
extract data that is filled out on this form and import it into a spreadsheet? -- JoAnn Paules Microsoft MVP - Publisher How to ask a question http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 "Moof" wrote in message news I sent you one.
