Column Widths in Word and Excel
Hi,

So it appears that Word and Excel use different measurements for column heights and widths. Word's table cell measurements are apparently in inches. Are Excel's in pixels? Not sure.
I have Excel tables I need to paste into Word. I want to set my Excel table heights and widths to match Word's. Is there a way to do this calculation? I tried converting inches to pixels and that doesn't seem to work.
in Excel the width is the width in characters.
Try:
Excel options = Advanced = Display and set the ruler units to inches.
You can check the width of the columns in Word and can modify the width
in Excel = Page Layout.
