I have a word document that I would like to save as an Excel file. then I can
sort the file, make seperate worksheets by subject ..all the processes I know
how to do in Excel. Please help!!
 
Hi

Try doing a copy and paste into Excel. Or, if the document is in regular
tabular formation, do File > Save As, in "Save as type" choose .txt, and
then open that in Excel.

In any case, once you're in Excel, you may have to do Data > Text to Columns
to get the data nicely lined up in rows and columns.

Hope this helps.

The old Excel converter which allows documents to be saved in Excel format
is linked from the downloads page of my web site.
