Inserting Excel tables

[JD]

I have looked around the database and found some of the
answers I was looking for...but:
I am trying to insert an excel table (16 actually) into a
word document. I know I will have to make 16 sep. files
and insert each. When I look at the file, I cannot see the
spreadsheet until i do a print preview. My insert as an
icon is not checked and whether it is or not does not seem
to matter. Problem lies in the fact that the easiest way
for us to input the data is in excel but the bid spec. we
are working with specifies that everything must be in
word. I have made a word table but it is a lot harder to
input the data on and have it update when changes are
made. Any suggestions?

Go to Tools>Options, click on the View tab. There should be an options
labelled "Picture placeholders". If it is checked, this is probably your
problem. Uncheck it, and you should be able to see the spreadsheet in Print
Layout view.
