Office 2000 pasting multiple excel pages into Word-

[woodis]

Hi Folks,

Per the subject, I have an excel file with 400 plus rows of data, and the
page setup is set to repeat four rows at the top of each page when printed.
Is there any way to paste the rows into Word so that it retains the "repeat
the rows at top of every page" when it breaks across the pages in Word? If
there is I have not found a way.

Thanks

As you say the Excel data is breaking across pages, I assume that you are
pasting the cells into word using a simple paste, in which case it is
actually being converted to a Word table so that you can use Word's Heading
Rows Repeat facility to get the top four row to repeat on each page.

If, however, you're using Edit|Paste Special with the 'Paste Link'option, you need to do something along the lines of:
a. paste the Excel 'heading' rows into the page header, then paste the remaining Excel rows into the document body; or
b. create a two-row table, the first of which you format as 'heading rows repeat', then paste the Excel 'heading' rows into the
first row of the table, and the remaining Excel rows into the second row of the table

Thanks Doug. This works but its not really not what I need. Too many
formatting problems. Gonna print to pdf, then save as a tiff, then insert
into word.

Appreciate your response.

Thanks for the reply macropod. Ive been trying to solve this problem for
years, huge spreadsheets all formatted just right, then try to bring them
into word is a problem. The best way I have found to to this is a cumbersome
way but it works. Print excel file to pdf. Save as tiff. Each page retains
formatting needed. Then paste the picture into word. Gotta be a better way.

Thanks again for the info, it works well on smaller tables.

Using the SnagIt printer (Get SnagIt from www.techsmith.com), that task is
quite simple

You are obviously aware that objects in Word cannot span pages, but if you
select a suitably sized portion of your spreadsheet that will fit on a page
and copy to the clipboard then in Word Edit > Paste Special > Bitmap - check
the link box, the clipboard content is inserted as a bitmapped image which
can be scaled to fit your page, and which remains linked to the sheet so
that it will reflect changes. The bitmap will also retain its inserted size.
Repeat for the other 'pages'.
