Importing directory into Excel

There were a few postings that had the directions for getting the directory
into Excel format. I can't find them on Google. Does anyone remember the
directions? They would be most appreciated.

Hi Alice
I have Excel 2002. I opened up Excel and in the search boxed typed "table
to excel" and found your answer. In case you have a different version,
etc., I've cut and pasted the directions. It worked great for me so hope it
works for you

Copy a Word table into Excel

1.. In Microsoft Word, select the rows and columns of the table you want
to copy.
If you want to select the entire table, click the table, point to Select on
the Table menu, and then click Table.

2.. Click Copy on the Standard toolbar.
3.. Switch to your Microsoft Excel worksheet.
4.. Click in the upper-left corner of the worksheet area where you want to
paste the table.
Cells from the copied table replace any existing cells in the area.

5.. Click Paste .
6.. To adjust the formatting, click Paste Options next to the data, and
then click Match Destination Formatting to use any formatting that was
previously applied to the Excel cells, or Keep Source Formatting to match
the formatting of the Word table as closely as possible.
Note Excel pastes the contents of each cell in the Word table to a
separate Excel cell. If you want to split the data in the cells further, for
example to divide first and last names so they're in separate cells, use the
Text to Columns command on the Data menu.
