How do you copy a whole spreadsheet onto word? I need it to have the toolbar and cells and everything if you know what I mean, not just the cells.

Help! Please post a reply a.s.a.p!!!

If you're looking to produce an *image* of the Excel window, try SnagIt from http://www.techsmith.com.

Works GREAT for just this purpose and last I looked, free 45-day trial.

And there is Alt-Print screen in Windows. This copies the *active window* to the clipboard, so you can just Paste into Word. But I think SnagIt provides a much better image.

Do you basically mean a screen capture?
If so, just hit ALT+PRINTSCREEN and then paste it into Word.

have the image on screen you want, hold the Alt key (left of space) with it still held down press the Print Screen Key (right of F12).

Open word and Paste or Ctrl+V. should work.
