It is not clear what you are trying to do, but the essential difference
between an Excel table and a Word table is that the latter is constrained by the paper size, whereas the former isn't. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org teacher wrote: Trying to merge my gradebook Excel into Word.

Word tables have a maximum of 63 columns (and as Graham says, you would
typically need a wide sheet for paper for that). But is the problem somewhere else? I though you might mean that the columns are pushed together in the "Mail Merge Recipients" dialog box, but Word 2000 doesn't have that dialog... Peter Jamieson "teacher" wrote in message ...
