I have a multi-column Excel table from which I copied two columns and pasted them into Word. My problem is that the Word table will not update when the source Excel table changes.



I have followed the directions from AI without positive results. I would have thought it would be easy.

Try selecting and pressing the F9 key (Fn+F9 on many computers).
If you need more help with this help us help you by telling us which steps you followed:
- to create the links, and
- to update them.

To ensure you have a table that updates when the Excel data update:
1. Copy the Excel range
2. In Word, choose Paste>Paste Special>Paste link, then choose your preferred paste format.
