You can place sheets into another workbook with move or copy sheets,
this is located in the edit file.

I just tried to do this and it did not work for me. I think it's better if i
just copy the spreadsheet and paste in Word then merge from there... or is
this the round-about way of doing this?

It should work. Tell us what you did (the steps you went through), and
provide more detail on what "did not work" means.

Regards,
Fred.

Didn't know where to even begin. I had two worksheets -- one with data the
other with the form. I went to edit then Move or Copy Sheet, a box popped
up, I selected worksheet containing the list I wanted in the form, clicked on
the Create a copy box, then OK. The result is a copy of the form instead of
the data being placed in the fields within the form. I thank you for your
help. Susan

Well, at least now you know how to copy sheets.

Now you need to tell us what you mean by "merge" sheets. What does your data
look like, and what does your form look like?

Fred.

I have an Excel spreadsheet set up to be a form. I need to replace columns
A2, B2, and C3 down to row 800 with new data contained in the second
worksheet. I hope I am making myself clear with my explanation.

Well, now we know what you need to do, but you haven't given us any details.
Without details, we can only provide vague answers.

If you're not happy with copying the sheet, why not just copy the columns.
Will that work for you?

Regards,
Fred.

Thank you for all your time; I appreciate it. I wound up just copying the
columns to the worksheet containing the form and it worked. I was worried
that the formatting would go away but it did not. Thanks again. Susan
