Default Doc to excel

I have some documents that were done in word 2003 and excel 2003 already
printed up. The files were already erased from word and excel.
Is there a way that to put these printed documents back in excel only
without having to type them all over again if I scan the documents to the
computer?
Lamens term:
If I scan documents in the computer, can I somehow put the scanned files in
excel to make it look like it was done in excel and save it? Thank you.

hi,
I'm afraid you have a problem.
excel will view the scanned document as an image and wont be able to parce
the data in to cells. you can import it but it will "float" on top of the
cells as an image.
sorry
