I'm using Office 2003. I want to copy part of my Excel spreadsheet and paste
it into Word so that it appears as a table. However it goes off the edge of
the page in Word. I have been trying to get it to all fit on the page by
altering column widths, but I can't select the final columns to alter them
because they are off the page. Is there any better way to fix this than just
changing to landscape? I don't want to copy the table as a picture because I
want to be able to format it and possibly adjust some of the data in Word.
Thanks.
