Importing Tables from Word Documents

I have a new job where the majority of my colleagues are PC users and we must work on common documents. I have no problem saving documents as a word file and opening word documents. But I have had some issues with Tables coming from a word document. I looked on the forum and learned about inline tables but I have been unable to take a table from a .doc file and change it to an inline table. Basically when the page ends, the table stops, even when there is more text. It is making it really frustrating for work as I have been copying and pasting the text from the table into a new document to edit it and then replacing the new text with the old. Can anyone help me figure out how to see the text in tables from word documents??
Thanks,
Amber

It would be more efficient to use the true Office or one of the free clones: openOffice & neoOffice.

  • Importing Testcases from Word Document

    I want to import testcase form Word Document document to MTM tool. Are there any tools available for acheving this?
    The testcases table to import is not getting recognosed when I tried with "Test Case Migrator Plus".
    Able to import if the testcases are stored in excel. However, the entry stroke in a same cell is getting created as new test step. i.e New test steps is getting added in MTM tool if test step is written with a line break in excel.
    Any help on this would be great.

    Hello.
    Glad to receive your reply.
    Based on this link: http://tcmimport.codeplex.com/,
    test Case Migrator Plus tool allows test related artifacts, present in Excel and MHT/Word formats, to be imported into Team Foundation Server.
    I think that it support importing test cases from Word format into TFS. Then you can run those test cases in MTM.
    As I mentioned in my previous reply,
    Except Test Case Migrator Plus, and I don’t find any other tools which support this kind of import.
    If you get issues when you use “Test Case Migrator Plus” to import test case from Word Document to TFS, you can start a discussion onhttp://tcmimport.codeplex.com/discussions
    for better response.

  • Importing tables from Word 2003 into Robohelp for word ^

    Does anyone know how to import tables and boxex from Word
    2003 nicely into Robohelp 6

    You can capture the table from your original word.doc and
    save the image as either a bmp or gif file. In robohelp, insert the
    picture where you want it to be located at. Have the table act as
    an image.

    How do I copy a Word table into Pages?

    You may try just to copy & paste but it could be that the outcome is not matching your expecting, depending on the formating of the table.
    You may also import the *.doc directely into Pages. Except some special Word formates that work's well in most cases.
    Another way is to run around three corners by copying the table to Excel, export the values in a CSV (comma seperated value) file and import that clean data in Pages.

  • How to copy paste a table structure from word document into Text Field [field format Rich Text]

    In our current implementation we have a Blank page with Text Field [field format Rich Text] on generated PDF Document.
    Once the PDF document is generated, user can copy paste content form any word/rtf document to into the Text Field.
    Pasted content retains all text formatting [Bold, Italic, Underline, Indentation] except the Table format. Text Field is removing table metadata from the content and converting it into plant text.
    Is there anyway to copy paste table structure as it is from word document into Text Field?

    Hi,
    I don't think you can! While you can paste formatted text into the rich text field, the table metadata means nothing to the textfield.

  • How do i import a large word document into Indesign CS6?

    I am a new user to InDesign, using version CS6, I would like to know if there is an easy way to import a MS word document into InDesign. The document is about 1000 pages and contains text, images and tables.

    Notes on importing from Word to InDesign CS6 and exporting via Kindle Plugin can be found on my blog at:
    http://02cafd3.netsolhost.com/blogs/eBookTec/?p=316
    To make a long story short, the Kindle Plugin has a long-standing problem with tables and/or more than a certain limit of hyperlinks.  Since these problems have persisted for at least 2 years now, I must conclude that there are organizational problems on the Kindle Plugin project.  The possibilities include too many junior programmers, not enough attention to the project, not enough positive incentive to make the plugin work and any number of possible management weaknesses.  It took our JPL team about 3 years to put Spirit and Opportunity on Mars, so there's no way a technical problem could be standing this long in the way of the Kindle Plugin handling tables or any number of embedded hyperlinks - nor, for that matter, a Word source document of any reasonable size whatsoever.  One might also cite a lack of competition in this new business sector but then you'd have to ask, do they want to play in the eBook market or don't they?  Companies like Apple succeed by ignoring the competition and in this way end up setting the standards for decades to come.

  • Importing footnotes from Word (and making endnotes)

    I have always had great problems importing footnotes from Word. After having saved Word as an .rtf and importing the text through and Cmd/Ctrl-D the footnotes come in at the bottom of every column in the text frame.
    Is there any way of getting them to go to the end of the text whilst still keeping their numbers and the numbers in the body of the text?
    I think what I want to do is change footnotes to endnotes.
    At the moment I'm just deleting all the footnotes from each column and changing the leading to zero to close the box and then pasting all the footnotes from Word into the document as endnotes.
    This way at least I still get the superscript numbers in the text OK but it's not a very elegant solution.

    Hello Guys, Thank you so much for your answers. Sorry it took so long to get back to you, I've been really busy and I've only just got back to this job where I have all the footnotes. I tried  the Footnotes2Endnotes_v23.jsx and it worked first time!!
    This will save me countless hours with this issue. I have resorted to pasting in the text and laboriously re-entered the numbers in the past!
    Thank you Eugene and David.

  • How can i import tables from a different schema into the existing relational model... to add these tables in the existing model? plss help

    how can i import tables from a different schema into the existing relational model... to add these tables in the existing relational/logical model? plss help
    note; I already have the relational/logical model ready from one schema... and I need to add few more tables to this relational/logical model
    can I import the same way as I did previously??
    but even if I do the same how can I add it in the model?? as the logical model has already been engineered..
    please help ...
    thanks

    Hi,
    Before you start, you should probably take a backup copy of your design (the .dmd file and associated folder), in case the update does not work out as you had hoped.
    You need to use Import > Data Dictionary again, to start the Data Dictionary Import Wizard.
    In step 1 use a suitable database connection that can access the relevant table definitions.
    In step 2 select the schema (or schemas) to import.  The "Import to" field in the lower left part of the main panel allows you to select which existing Relational Model to import into (or to specify that a new Relational Model is to be created).
    In step 3 select the tables to import.  (Note that if there are an Foreign Key constraints between the new tables and any tables you had previously imported, you should also include the previous tables, otherwise the Foreign Key constraints will not be imported.)
    After the import itself has completed, the "Compare Models" dialog is displayed.  This shows the differences between the model being imported and the previous state of the model, and allows you to select which changes are to be applied.
    Just selecting the Merge button should apply all the additions and changes in the new import.
    Having updated your Relational Model, you can then update your Logical Model.  To do this you repeat the "Engineer to Logical Model".  This displays the "Engineer to Logical Model" dialog, which shows the changes which will be applied to the Logical Model, and allows you to select which changes are to be applied.
    Just selecting the Engineer button should apply all the additions and changes.
    I hope this helps you achieve what you want.

    Looks like an error in the ODBC driver, not OBIEE as such.
    Have you tried googling it?
    Can you post details about your OS and DB.

  • Creating Post Script File from Word Document

    Hi How to create a Ps File from Word document.. Is there any api to do this ?
    ~Arjun

    (1) It is
    PostScript, not
    Post Script or
    Ps!
    (2) To create PostScript from a Microsoft Word document, you simply open such a document in Microsoft Word and print to a PostScript printer driver instance, but chose the
    Print to file option. Note that since PostScript from drivers is device-dependent, you do need to choose a PostScript printer driver instance very carefully based on a PPD that has few device dependencies.

    CAN'T I IMPORT TABLES FROM 8.1.5 TO 8.1.6 ?

    Check the case of the file. imp usually wants the .dmp in lower case on unix and NT tends to have it in upper.
