Default Import text from cells in a Word table into graphic 'sticky notes'

Hello,

I have a large amount of text in a Word table that I would like to merge the
contents of each individual table row into a graphic image that looks like a
Post-It-Note in MS Word. In other words, I need to have 10-12 'sticky notes'
on a Word page with the contents of each row in the sticky note. Please help!

Default Import text from cells in a Word table into graphic 'sticky no

Thanks for the quick response. I use SnagIt all the time - it's a great
program. However, I need to automate the process to copy the text in each
row (over 20 pages of MS Word tables). Here's the deal - the information was
actually captured from Post-It-Notes during large group facilitated sessions.
These post-it-notes were placed on large sheets of chart paper, moved around
and then arranged into meaningful groups / ideas / actions on the chart
paper. Someone then did their best to type the results into Word tables -
with each notes info on a separate row. I'd like to somehow have a 'open'
graphic image of a 3 x 5 post-it-note and then merge the Table /row info into
a Word doc. I'm not sure if it's necessary that the p-i-n's have to be in a
non-grid arrangement, but that'd be wonderful.
