Default Saving a file

You cannot directly save an Excel file as a Word file.

What you can try is saving the Excel file as a .txt (text) file and then
open that file with Word and if it's usable/readable, save it as a .doc file
at that point.

Note that both .txt and .csv files can be opened with Word or Notepad or any
program capable of reading an ASCII text file.

Hello,

Can someone tell me if it is possible to save an Excel file as a Word
document? If so, how would I do that?

When doing a save as, the drop down menu doesn't give me that option.

Thanks for any help!
