Default COPY & PASTE WORD Doc into EXCEL


I usually just copy tables from Word to Excel, and then remove the
Borders as setup.

That you are asking this question would seem to indicate yours did not
copy well, thus I would point out to you that Word is a processor of
text with some arithmetic capability, and Excel a processor of numbers
with some text capability.

To simply copy and paste a document with Styles and paragraphs of long
text will be unlikey to produce a similar look in Excel with it's size,
display and print limitations.

Was there a purpose to this copy? - and has that purpose been achieved,
or could you be more specific about any errors encountered.
