convert word document to excel spreadsheet

[sg_s123]

I have many word documents (looks like a resume cover letter) and wish
to convert it into excel/accesss db for easy retrieval? I probably
have to rename the filename of these documents into job ref no. or
personal id number.

I have tried importing to excel but it look abit mess up , becos it
has paragraphs, indentation.

I wish to have a database system that allow me to retreive Personal id
and view their cover letter?

Hi Karen,

Perhaps you only want to add a link to the Word document in a cell in your
worksheet?
Go to an empty cell and use the key combination {ctrl}{K} to display the
hyperlink dialog. Select a Word document from the list and click OK. You
should now have a hyperlink in your worksheet. Clicking on the hyperlink
will open the actual Word document.

This way you can keep a list of documents in Excel (or Access) and sort by
other columns.
