How do I copy a Word document into Excel and have it look good?
 

My company did a table in Word showing goals, employee, actions, etc. There
is also text before each new goal. When I copy it from the Word 2000 to
Excel 2000 it gets into the spreadsheet but then I don't know how to clean it
up and make it look good!

If your goal is to have it look good, Word may be a better place to keep
the table. Its tables are more flexible, and it's designed for text
formatting.

Is there something you need to do in this document that can't be done in
Word?

Well, when my co-worker goes into Word to make changes and add items to the
document, her lines get all out of place and her spacing gets messed up. I
just thought it would be easier to do it in Excel.
