it would look like a poorly formatted sheet in others' opinion..

of course, if your data are suitably arranged for output to Word and you're amenable to that, a Word document can have tables with multiple-width columns and multiple-height rows, including support for merged & split cells. And, of course, Word tables simply appear sequentially in a document and you can use Tables of Contents, etc, for navigation between them.
which brings me to another question - is it possible to have a dynamic link between Excel & Word? for example, when we put an Excel file within powerpoint, the excel file can be edited directly and source file is updated accordingly. there doesn't seem to be a similar function in Word.

back to Q1, i notice the solution "convert to range" doesn't work if I have a few extra lines at the bottom to be formatted in the same style. is there a solution that can be used for the example below too?
