Default merge excel data to word 2007 table and text

I am trying to create a learning plan that shows the route that a learner
might take to a qualification. The data are in an Excel 2007 worksheet.
The user data are NAME (C2), CENTRE (C3) COMPANY (C4) ENROLL DATE (C5)
The course data are in B7:E12 where the column B7:B12 contains the course
name, C7:C12 has the course code, D712 the start date and E7:E12 the end
date. Row 6 has column headings.
There will always be 3 rows of data but rows 10 to 12 may be blank.
The data are in the third sheet of an excel 2007 workbook
I am asking for help to merge these data to a word 2007 table. The
difficulties that I have experienced include pointing word to the 3rd sheet
and taking data from rows 8 to 12

From your description, it sounds like you may be doing a many to one type
mail merge.

For that, you might try the addin that I have created that you can obtain
from the following page of fellow MVP Graham Mayor’s website:

Note however, that you will need to save the Excel spreadsheet in Excel
97-2003 format to be able to make use of that add-in

Hope this helps.

Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my
services on a paid consulting basis.

Hi David ,

You can probably use Word's Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge facility for this (the terminology depends on the Word version). To see
how to do so with any mailmerge data source supported by Word, check out my Word 97-2007 Catalogue/Directory Mailmerge Tutorial at:
http://lounge.windowssecrets.com/ind...owtopic=731107
or
http://www.gmayor.com/Zips/Catalogue%20Mailmerge.zip
Do read the tutorial before trying to use the mailmerge document included with it.
