If you're inserting it as an OLE object, then you're in effect embedding all
the Excel functionality into Word.

I'm sorry Jezebel; the answer to your question is:
Using Paste Special I selected Paste: & Microsoft Excel Worksheet Object
If I use HTML it truncates the Excel table.
I don't understand that if Office is all supposed to be OLE, why does a
200k
Excel table turn into a 2Mb beast in Word?

OK, so what option DID you use?

I did not link it to the original. It doesn't need to auto-update from
Excel.
It's a report; attendance listing.

My 213k Ecxel table bloats my 105k Word Doc to 2.5Mb - Why? I've
tried
copy &
paste, copy & paste special. Both still bloat the Doc. Help!
