Copying excel tables into word document
I have some documents laid out in excel spreadsheets that I would like to
move over to a word document for a mail merge. The tables are set-up to fit to one page, but when I try to copy them to word, the table overflows the word document. Is there an easy way to resize the information to a single page in word? |

Copying excel tables into word document
Hi ?B?UGF0IEd1cmdkaWVs?=,
I have some documents laid out in excel spreadsheets that I would like to move over to a word document for a mail merge. The tables are set-up to fit to one page, but when I try to copy them to word, the table overflows the word document. Is there an easy way to resize the information to a single page in word? Word should be able to merge directly to the Excel tables?

Hi Pat -
Can you be more clear about what you have to work with and what you are trying to do with it? Version information would also be helpful.

Copying excel tables into word document
I'm using word 2003 and excel 2003. I think I've figured out some of the
issue (which may lead to a different question). In excel the document is reduced to 69% of it's original size so that it fits on a single page. If there any way to make the same sort of reduction in word? "CyberTaz" wrote: Hi Pat - Can you be more clear about what you have to work with and what you are trying to do with it?

Copying excel tables into word document
He're some more info that may help.
I have a templete in excel that is printed and mailed (kind of like a bill). The information is set in excel with several different font sizes, merged cells, and formatting. When I try to copy the table to word, it overflows a single word page to the right and to the bottom. My goal is to get the info on the sheet scaled down to 1 page in word (and then add 2 other sheets the same way) so that all the information fits 1 table per page. My end goal is that I'm trying to get already made document moved to Word so that I can make some adjustments and do a mail merge without having to reconstruct the original documents. Thanks "CyberTaz" wrote: Hi Pat - Can you be more clear about what you have to work with and what you are trying to do with it? Version information would also be helpful.
