Information from Excel to Word

If I have a table in Excel using autoformat, does this total reflect when copied over to Word, or do I need to calculate the totals again?

RE: Information from Excel to Word

Hi Charlotte

Thank you for your question. When you copy from Excel and Paste into Word only the data (not the formulas) is copied. So totals won't need to be added in Word if they were included in Excel but the totals won't update to reflect changed values in Word. For this replace the totals with calculated formula fields in your table (Table > Formula)

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Andrew

Word tip:

Autonumbering in Word

The Auto Numbering feature in Word can be both useful (when you want it to work) and annoying when you don't.

When you begin a list by typing 1 then press the space bar or tab key, and type in text, Word will automatically change the paragraph to a numbered list when the ENTER key is pressed. This will mean that the next paragraph is automatically numbered as 2.

If you do not want Word to continue sequentially numbering any following paragraphs, you can turn off Auto Numbering. To do this, go to Tools-Auto Correct Options. In the Auto Correct dialog box, click the "Auto Format As You Type" tab. Deselect the "Automatic Numbered Lists" checkbox, then click OK to close the box.

To turn Auto Numbering back on, go back into Tools-AutoCorrect Options and recheck the "Automatic Numbered Lists" option.
