Pasting Tables from Excel to Word
Hari:
(A) Try SDocument.Bookmarks("\EndOfDoc").Select
(B) If all you want is a new page and not a new section, try
Selection.InsertBreak Type:=wdPageBreak
(I used Selection rather than Range with the assumption that your insertion
point is at the end of the document.)
The column width behavior is hard to deal with because Word wants to
automatically format a lot of your table stuff for you. You can turn it off
when a table is created, but that's after the fact when you paste. I can
see two possible considerations.
If you do not need the table in Word to be an actual table, then you can
paste the Excel table in as a Picture (see Word VBA Help for PasteSpecial,
or in the Excel code you can use the CopyPicture method instead of Copy and
then Paste in Word). This inserts the Excel range as a graphic, which means
it can not be edited nor can it be searched for text. It will, however, fit
your page and retain the look of your Excel file.
If, however, you do need the Word table to be text rather than graphic, then
you are going to need to make sure your Word document is as much the same
size as your Excel page. Do a Print Preview in Excel - what are your page
margins? are you landscape or portrait? do you have a scaling factor or
percentage? what about your font and size? Also, Word adds two characters
in every cell as a marker - these can add an extra bit of width.

Hi,
I have to paste lot of tabulated data from excel to word. I have
programmed
in Excel and pasted the code below.
Basically I look for the Word "Table " in Excel and copy the range till
the
next instance of the word "Table "
Then I go to Winword and paste it. After pasting the present table I have
to
do following 2 additional things in Word:-
A) I have to go to the end of the document - The excel code --
SDocument.Range.EndOf Unit:=wdStory, Extend:=wdExtend -- doesnt make the
cursor go to the end of the word document (Neither do I get any error).
What
would be the correct code to make cursor go to end of Word document?
B) I have to then insert a Page Break after the present table- The Excel
code -- SDocument.Range.InsertBreak Type:=wdSectionBreakNextPage --
strangely clears the freshly pasted data. I have also tried the code
SDocument.Range.InsertBreak Type:=wdSectionBreakNextPage but this created
a
page break ABOVE the freshly pasted data. How to create a page break after
the presently pasted data?
After doing the above the control goes back to excel and the process keeps
on repeating till there are no more words.
I have one more issue which is after pasting the Column Widths of table in
Word are thoroughly different as compared to what I have in Excel. The
whole
table shoots off the right side of word margin. I have close to 26 columns
in excel and before pasting I reduce the widths and then copy but even
then
in word it gets expanded. What is the syntax for controlling the column
width of a freshly pasted table?
Thanks a lot,
Hari
