Microsoft Office Word Document Object

[Guest]

I am attempting to copy and paste from one, heavily-formatted Word document
into a table in another Word document using Paste Special > Microsoft Office
Word Document Object. The problem I have is that when you paste with this
option it only copies one page into a table, rather than the entire
selection. How do paste with this option and paste the entire selection into
a table? Paste Special > Microsoft Office Word Document Object is the only
method that keeps all the formatting from the original document, so I have to
use this method of Paste Special.

It can't be done. It's just the way Word OLE objects work. All the pages are in
there - you'll see it if you double-click. But only one page can be displayed at
a time.

You'd have to do each page separately.
