I would like to embed a table generated in excel into a MS word.doc.
have tried screen capture methods but the bmp image is still not of adequate
quality.
 
There are several methods:

1. Select the table in Excel. Select Copy from the Edit menu. Go to your
Word document. Select Paste. This will likely paste your table into Word as
a Word table, which you can then edit, resize, change fonts, etc.

2. Select the table in Excel. Holding down the Shift key, select Copy
Picture... from the Edit menu. You can select either a Picture (i.e. a
Metafile) or a Bitmap. Select Picture for best quality. Go to Word. Select
Paste.

3. Same as Step 1 above, but select "Paste Special" in Word, and select
"Paste Link" instead of "Paste" so that whenever you update your table in
Excel, the picture in Word also updates.

4. Same as Step 2 above, but "Paste Special" and "Paste Link" in Word.

HTH,

Eric
