Wolfram,
if you want to get a bit fancy, you can put an excel table in a Word document and when you open the Word document it will check with Excel to see if you have updated said document.
I found this feature very cool, but I only have used it once.
Go to Word help and look for linked and embedded objects
that should help walk you through it.
Go to Insert / Object. From there it's pretty simple.
If you select the "Link to file" option, your changes to the Excel spreadsheet done outside of Word will be reflected in the Word doc.
or do what tommy says.
I think the Word help is pretty decent on this because it does a nice job explaining linking and embedding and the differences in outcomes.
I will check it out. I hate that Microsoft Word has so many cool toys. I feel like The Joker.

And that link, of course, takes you to a site that pops up a big ad.
I just spilled water on my keyboard. It seems to be working fine, but is there anything I should do to help it dry off? (Bearing in mind that it's a work computer, so I can't start prying off keys or anything.)
