Try the following, however Word nd Excel formats are different from one another so I am not sure of the point of the exercise.

Code:
Sub ExportWordtoExcelNew()
Dim wordDoc As Document
Dim oXL As Object
Dim Target As Object
Dim tSheet As Object
Dim YesOrNoAnswerToMessageBox As String
Dim QuestionToMessageBox As String


    QuestionToMessageBox = "Do you want Excel to open and paste your selection?"
    YesOrNoAnswerToMessageBox = MsgBox(QuestionToMessageBox, vbYesNo, "QuikBots for Word")
    If YesOrNoAnswerToMessageBox = vbYes Then
        Set wordDoc = ActiveDocument
        wordDoc.Range.Copy

        'If Excel is running, get a handle on it; otherwise start a new instance of Excel
        On Error Resume Next
        Set oXL = GetObject(, "Excel.Application")
        If Err Then
            Set oXL = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
        End If
        On Error GoTo 0

        oXL.Visible = True
        'oXL.ActiveWindow.Close SaveChanges:=False

        Set Target = oXL.Workbooks.Add
        Set tSheet = Target.Sheets(1)
        tSheet.Paste

        'Minimize word so you can see Excel
        'wordDoc.Application.WindowState = wdWindowStateMinimize
    End If
    Set wordDoc = Nothing
    Set oXL = Nothing
    Set Target = Nothing
    Set tSheet = Nothing
End Sub
