Copying word tables of different column width to excel.
 

Hi, I have a huge word document which has so many tables and some text. I
want to convert this document into excel sheet.
Example: In 1 table the first column is "No." which needs as less space to
enter a single digit number, whereas in the next table, the first column has
some other data, that will need space for upto 15 words!!!!
This is when the problem arises. I cannot have the tables one below the
other in excel sheet.. Is there a method to optimise this???
PS. I have nearly 40 tables like this!!!
Thanks!!

Copy each table to a different worksheet, and auto-adjust column width.

Hi Ardus Petus, Thanks for your answer, but as I mentioned, I have over 40
tables and if I use different work sheets, it would distort the format of the
docuiment abruptly.
Can some one please help me with this?

You cannot have different column width within one column of a worksheet.

Cell merging makes things even worse.

Hi AP, Thanks again. But actually I wanted to know whether there is any other
method to replace these tables.... and not to have different column widths
with 1 column.
Thanks.
