Default Margins format

i have a document in 2007 where users pasted different pieces including
Excel tables. How do i bring them all to a single margin format as some
pages are wider than the others? i tried the format brush tool but it did
not work

Default Margins format

In Page Setup, you can set the margins for "Whole document," which will take
care of the margins even if the document contains more than one section. It
will not, however, affect the width of existing tables. What you'll need to
do for those is to set the table width (Table tab of Table Properties) to
100%. Unfortunately, unless you use a macro, there is no way to do this
automatically for all tables.

If the Excel "tables" are actually embedded sheets or have been pasted as
images, then this approach will not help.
