How to Import Excel Tables Into MS Word


1. Highlight and copy the content in Excel that you wish to embed in the Word document.
2. Switch to the Word document.
3. Place the cursor where you want the imported data.
4. Click the arrow under 'Paste' in the 'Clipboard' segment of the 'Home' menu. Choose 'Paste Special' from this menu.
5. Click the circle next to 'Paste Link.' Highlight 'Microsoft Office Excel Worksheet Object' in the box that says 'As' and click 'OK.'
6. Press 'Alt' and 'F9' at the same time. This turns on the field code display. The embedded link should appear something like this: {LINK Application 'File Path' [Range] [Switches]}
7. Modify switches if desired. Switches control options for automatic or manual updating and formatting. For example, choosing \A tells Word to automatically update the linked field. The full list of switches is available in Reference 1.
