Instead of copy / paste into Word, try copy / paste special, paste link.
Then when it needs to be changed, you change the spreadsheet and the changes
"magically" appear in your Word table.

I am creating a budget that also includes contract information. Since I
cannot cut and paste excel into a word document and have the ablity to change
the formulas and numbers, I need to enter about 3 paragraphs of text into an
excel document. When I enter the text, the column has to be extremely wide
and the text wrapped so that you can read it. This means that I can only
have one column per page and I need to have multiple columns above the text.
How can I create a table with multiple columns above the text? or how can I
enter text below the budget so that the entire text is readable?
