![]() If you are going from WORD to EXCEL - then to get everything to work correctly - put you stuff into a WORD Table, then remove any of the following with the find and replace function of WORD: Remove all "paragraph marks" (^p), "manual line breaks" (^l), any "tabs inside a cell" (^t). Then you should be able to paste into excel without any problems. You might have to "turn-on" non printing characters to be able to "see" the tab, paragraph, and manual line breaks indicators. Also you can find the above characters in the "FIND" popup menu - Select "MORE" tab - then "SPECIAL." Then for the replace - just press the spacebar and this will give you 1 space. *** Going from EXCEL to WORD you should be able to do a COPY and PASTE. -- wjohnson ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wjohnson's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...o&userid=29640 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=526886 |
