How can I paste text that's not formatted as a table into a new table?
I have some text I'd like to copy and paste into a Word table (Word 2007), but I can't get it to go into the correct individual cells. The original text isn't formatted as a table so I can't "Paste as cell." Is there a way I can force this text to paste into the correct cells of a table? Thanks. First image is the text, the second is what it looks like when I try to paste it into a table. |

First, paste the content into Word in a location that isn't part of a table. Then, select the content and choosing Insert>Table>Convert Text to Table. Word should default to a setup that accommodates however many columns and rows you have.
