Thank you very much for replying.
I know about the wrap option. I have it turned on but nothing wraps after the paste operation. The truncated data is already lost and is not restored after I turn wrap on.
--If I create an empty 4 column table, all the data gets pasted into the first column. That is why I am using "columns" in Word 2007. (See attachment).
--If I setup Word to have 4 columns before the paste operation, and then paste the data, each Excel row is truncated into a single truncated line per 'cell'. Turning wrap on after that happens does not restore the lost text.
--If I paste the data into a blank Word document, all the data is correctly pasted. If I now select all and tell Word to use 4 columns, it converts the selected text into 4 columns. but again the data is truncated into single shortened lines per 'cell'. If I click on table properties, and check, I see that wrap is selected, it still does not wrap and the text remains truncated into single shortened lines per 'cell'
That's why I am asking if this is a bug and how to work around it.
