Copying information from Excel into Word

This is quick to do and a useful way to add financial information from Excel to a Word document.  This is an effective way to add a snapshot of financial data without the need for Excel’s tools.

Tip: The Excel data will appear as a table in Word.  It will show the figures but you won’t have Excel’s functionality, so you won’t have access to the formulas.

For example, I want to put some budget information in a Word document so I can hand this out at a meeting.  I don’t want to have to type the data in a Word table, because I can save myself time by copying the information from Excel directly into my Word document.

To do this, I open a new blank document in Word.

In Excel, I copy the cells I want, and use Control and C to select them.

I go back to my Word document and put my cursor where I want to add the Excel information.  And then use Control and V to paste it into the document.
