A copy and paste basically turns your Excel data into a Word table

For this example, assume that the data will change every so often and that you will need to have the worksheet recalculate as information is modified. Now, let's assume that you want to include this information in some kind of report.

Copy & paste

You've used copy and paste before to move information from one place to another, and may have even used this method at some point to include Excel data in your Word documents.

When you do a copy and paste from Excel into Word, as above demonstrates, your Excel information is converted into a Word table with all of the limitations inherent in Word tables. However, this is sometimes a great approach if you have some data in Excel you want to present for a one-time report and the information will never change.

That's all I'll say about this method.
