"FirstName=A
LastName=B
State=TX

I want to change it to be table sheet format such as:

Does anybody have any ideal how to write a macro or coding for this excel. Or may anybody help me to write macro for it.

Using Visual Basic, how do I paste a table from Excel spreadsheet to a word file? I am able to copy from excel and paste in excel. But can not do so from excel to word.
Please help!

You have a couple of options. But you don't need VBA to do this unless you are trying to automate the process.

Start by selecting the range of cells you want to copy to Word. Click on Copy. Open the Word document where you want the Excel information to reside. IF you simply click on paste in Word ..the excel information will copy into Word as a table....the formulas will NOT hold but the results of the formulas will be present. IF you want the formulas to hold, you have the option to paste with Excel functionality or paste a link to the original workbook, thus when the original workbook is updated the information in word will also be updated. You use the Paste Special command to select either of these options. In the Paste Special options box ...choose Microsoft Excel Worksheet Object to incorporate Excel editing capability into your Word Document. Click on Paste Link Radial Button to link the Word document to the original Excel file.

Hope this helps ... if any of it is unclear let me know. Also, if you are trying to automate this process with a VBA program .... let me know and I'll try to help you.

easy, use vb to sendkeys to block the table, for example from row 4 and column 3 to row 5 and column 8. Thus, send the keys to block from (4,3) to (5,8) then sendkeys to excel to copy the table and then paste it into word.

I assumed that u know how to send keys.
