The spreadsheet created in Word is a funky size, and when you try to make it the correct size, it stretches the words. Well you can try use a menu Insert | Object, choose Ms excel Worksheet,and then you copy your excel data into that sheet, it's more easy like that Thanks in advance for your gracious advice!! I am very frustrated and after two days of this, I'm ready to pull out my hair. I don't have the information she wants done, so I improvise with my own to test it out, and it always seems to work, but when I go into her office with her Mac and the information to be used, it NEVER WORKS!!!!! I have MS on my computer, so when I try these things out, they work. Please help me! I've tried regular copy/paste, but when I try and make it fit on one page, I only have so much room to adjust the size. I'm doing this for my boss, and every time we size it to fit, it ends up looking like (in her words exactly) 'a cake that has fallen in on itself.short and fat' (stretching of the words and figures, even when using the corner instead of the sides).
I can get it to fit to one page by copying as a picture or paste special but, as far as I can tell, there is no way to size it so that the quality is intact. I have looked on other forums at tons of other people's threads and tried everything. I am trying to paste a spreadsheet from Excel into a Word document, but it needs to fit on ONE page.
I am having trouble with the copy/paste function between Excel and Word.
