Copy spreedsheet to word
Jim S 12/15/2008 6:52:02 PM
I want to copy a worksheet or range of cells from an Excel worksheet to a
page in a word document. The problem is that when I do so the worksheet
extends to 3 or 5 pages. How can I past the worksheet or range of cells and
have it reduce to fit the word page document? I would like to retain updates
from the source material. Inable to print the Excel page in excel it is
reduced by 60% so in able for it to print on a Word page it will need to be
reduced. Using Office )#

Which version of Office :-)?

This isn't going to be something that's going to happen automatically if you
want the result to be a Word table.

You can try going over Paste Special and choosing an "Excel Worksheet object".
That will definitely limit the result to a single page. The question is, whether
it will cut things off, or reduce them (the newer the version of Word, the more
likely it will reduce).
