Default Inserting Word Tables into ONE (1) Excel cell

It would be very useful if I were able to take an entire
Microsoft Word 200 table and place it into one cell on
Microsoft Excell 2000. I know this can be accomplished by
using a EditPaste SpecialMicrosoft Word Document Object
but I would like to be able to absolutely integrate the
table into the cell...just as if it were simple text.

Thanks for the help

Well, an Excel cell can't hold a Word table. Excel cells can
only hold text. So I have trouble understanding what it is
you actually expect to see in the single cell...

About the closest I can imagine is to paste special into
Word as unformatted text, then use Edit/Replace to exchange
the Tabs and paragraph marks with spaces?
