Thanks a lot. This is the only video that helped me to do this. Your guidelines are precise and clear. Keep it up dear.

The video is fine for smaller tables, but even the one used in the example was cut off on the right hand side, so the whole table wasn't shown in the Word document, which kind of defeats the whole purpose of having it there? Can you show how to make the whole table fit into the Word Doc? That would be a very useful video - if its possible. Thanks.

Thanks for your help! You did a great job of explaining the situation!

Finally someone who don't muck around and gets to the nuts and bolts fast

David Brittain makes a very valid point below about your spreadsheet not fitting onto the Word page, with the right hand part cut off. It would have been more helpful if you could have answered this question because I too, have this very problem. Please advise us.

So helpful and straight to the point. Thank you so much!

Hi! Thanks for this tip! However I am wondering if there is a chance I can show or hide selected columns or rows if I imbed the excel sheet in the word file using Mac? Have been able to do this on Windows however can't seem to do it on Mac. Would really appreciate if you can make a tutorial on it. Thanks!

[karabozavale]

Very useful, thank you so much... I really like ur instructions, u are very specific. ✌️❤️ Much love, from South Africa.

[namiiroraihanakasauli]

That's very forward and important thanks

[ryzenwick]

short, straight to the point, scripted and not an improvised explanation. PERFECT!

[arlenezimmerly]

Thank you. I have inserted the linked object successfully, but when I'm in Word, double-click the spreadsheet object to edit it, when I'm finished editing and click outside the spreadsheet to close it and return to the Word document, I get strange behavior--the spreadsheet leaves a sort of shell of a blank spreadsheet that is entirely gray and that seems to be layered over the original embedded spreadsheet. I'm not able to see the spreadsheet again until I close and re-open the Word document, then the embedded spreadsheet looks fine once again. Any idea why this is happening? Is clicked outside the embedded spreadsheet object the best way to close that embedded spreadsheet in Word?

Thanks for your tutoring, somehow word doesn't reflect the new changes from Excel.

how to adjust the width of the tables? even in the video shown that the tables were cut out by paper

[ramnoham]

Hi, I have a big excel worksheet, spread on several pages, how can I convert it to a word doc?

[frederickhargro]

You should do a video on how to imbed the file, not just copy and paste. I want anyone with the Word Document to be able to open the Excel file as it has many tabs with connected data.

[hopeosita]

I do not have paste special, just paste.

[joeyjoey]

after watching this video i still cant copy and paste a table cleanly into a word doc.

[KO-imsm]

I need to size it so it fits in word. I tried grabbing the edges but it doesn’ fit. That always the biggest issue. If you copy and past you can move the edges. But it its a long excel doc it screws everything up with page run on’s
