Importing a WORD table

[wdc202]

I have a large WORD Table (8 columns by 800 rows) that I would like to import into a new Access file. What is the best way to accomplish that? Thanks.

first make a copy
now
save the word file as csv, txt etc

put it somewhere you know on your pc

now open access import table - point it at the csv, txt file - let the wizard do the rest

(pointer - always make copies of what you doing - in case it goes tits up..

You might try a simple copy and paste.
It works for Excel tables. The data types have to be compatible though.
Might just work. Select Table and Control + C on the WORD end, then Control + V on the Access table.
