How to Convert an Excel File to Word on a Mac
1. Open Microsoft Word by double-clicking on it in the 'Applications' folder.
2. Select 'Open' from the 'File' menu.
3. Use the browser to navigate to the Excel file you want to convert and highlight it. If the Excel file appears in gray and cannot be selected, you may need to adjust the 'Enable' setting at the bottom of the window so it is set to 'All files' or 'All Readable Files.' Press 'Open.'
4. Click 'Okay' in the onscreen prompt. In the 'Open Workbook' dialogue box, select 'Entire Workbook' in both spaces.
5. Convert the XLS or XLSX file to a Word DOC or DOCX file by going to the 'File' menu and selecting 'Save As.' Enter a name for the converted file and select a save location. In the Format pull-down menu, select the desired Word document type. Press 'Save' to complete the process.
