Hello Everyone,

I am creating a wine manual for work and have entered all my important data to a Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet. What I want to do now is have that Excel data transferred to a Microsoft Word document without me having to manually copy/paste each data entry to a seperate page for each row, as there are 135 wines I must cover.

How do I export data from a Microsoft Excel 2007 spreadsheet to a Microsoft Word 2007 template, each row of data pertaining to its own Word template/page?

I assume I would have to enter data tags in my word document so that Excel can parse those tags with actual data.

Also, even though I am a first time visitor to these forums, I assure you I have used the forum Search function and I have also Googled. :) The only information I seem to find are guides showing how to Control+C and Control+V a range of data from Excel to Word, which is what I am trying to avoid, or implying the use of XML.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide! I will be checking this post regularily throughout the next few days.
 

Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
Open your word document. Go to tools, mail merge, and it will take you through the steps. Basically you want to use the current document. Then you want to open a data source, go to your excel file. Then you can close and the Mail Merge toolbar should be displayed. Put your cursor where you want a certain field and then go up and find that in the toolbar.

It's pretty easy and the Word Help is pretty good.

Good Luck.
