Default Trying to move text but not cells

How can I copy the text from an excel document into a Word document and not
get the cells or the spreadsheet with it?

One way may be to copy and paste the Excel contents into Notepad, and then
copy and paste again from Notepad to Word. Normally all the format will be
gone in the process, that may fit in your case.

Hope this helps,
Miguel

In Word, Click Edit, Paste Special- Unformatted Text.

Maybe (inside word):

Edit|Paste special|unformatted text

I sometimes cheat and paste into notepad first. Then copy and paste from there.
