Word & Excel 2007 Copy from Excel into word doc
Help pls someone...
I do all my sales quotes in excel then paste them into word. I have just got a Vista machine with Word and Excel 2007 software. On my XP machine I would simply copy the quote on excel then in word go to "edit" then "paste special" and it would paste in beautifully. I could select the pasted spreadsheet then resize it to fit the page. On my Vista machine, now if I do the same thing (in Word) it pastes in the spreadsheet, I cannot see the spreedsheet (only the outline) and I cannot resize it. It appears that this feature is almost totally broken. |

Word & Excel 2007 Copy from Excel into word doc
I have the same problem, I always used PASTE / SPECIAL /PICTURE so far the
only way I can do it with Vista is to paste into the Paint program, and then save as a JPEG and import as a picture - it wastes a lot of time. Any better solutions? "Mark" wrote: Help pls someone...

I'm having the same problem. I need to be able to paste (from a pivot table) a static picture, but in Word2007, it is staying linked to the source pivot table. This means that I'm pasting 8 instances of supposedly separate pictures, but when I go back and look, they're all identical! That's a huge problem!
