Hello
I'm trying to past an Excel range of cell values in to a Word table with a
link to the Excel range of cells, but Word pasts the range in to only one
cell. I select a range with the same orientation, configuration and same
number of cells in the Word table, click "Past special" and "Past link:" for
this. Word 2003 sp2 pasts the range in to a range of the same size if I
click "Past special" and "Past:", not "Past link:". How to make Word past
with "Past link:" in to a range (not to only one cell) as with "Past:"?

Hi Dmitry,

You cannot do this. Check Tools | Options | tab View | Field codes to see
why: the range of cells will have become one field. You cannot spread one
field over multiple cells in a Word table.

Perhaps you can make up the data in Excel the way you like to have it in
Word, and paste this in Word - in other words replace the entire Word table
by the Excel table. Probably you may have thought of this as well.

Good luck,
Cooz

Thanks for your reply.
The existing Word table is too large to recreate in Excel.
