Paste in Word

Say, I've tried pasting the attached in word 2013 and experienced an issue where the right margin is cropped and the document spans much more than 2 pages. Please can you assist with how to achieve this.

You could try to:
1) Insert this as a spreadsheet document into word
Insert --> Table --> Excel Spreadsheet, then copy paste your excel file in word and manipulate directly in word

2) Save as PDF (if to be used as a paper form - see attachment)

3) Clip an image of the application and paste onto Word (if to be used in paper format and not electronically)

In any case you have many rows and I do not think it would fit in 1 page, unless you made smaller fonts, which may not be readable...2 page form printed front and back would look good

The size of your table is too big for a standard letter sized page (or A4 page)

In fact, it requires 2 pages...

I need this as a 2 page form but editable in word. Excel is not as user friendly to edit this form.

How can I achieve this?

PS I've tried this but have same issue as described in question:
1) Insert this as a spreadsheet document into word
Insert --> Table --> Excel Spreadsheet, then copy paste your excel file in word and manipulate directly in word
This is the best money I have ever spent. I cannot not tell you how many times these folks have saved my bacon. I learn so much from the contributors.

I don't think it is possible without changing the size of the table since it is 9" wide.

Here is the table in docx format, A4 size, landscape orientation (on 4 pages).

Hope this is close to what you want :)

amazing xtermie
How did you achieve this - in broad terms...

PS Is there any way to get the formula to work towards the very bottom of the 2nd page?

Glad it looks like what you want :)
FYI, I did it manually as I initially had inserted your spreadsheet as and Excel spreadsheets in Word (as per my suggestion), then manipulated in the spreadsheet, copied it as a Word table and changed size to Arial 9, which made the rows a bit narrower and it fitted in two pages

Sorry I do not understand what you mean when you write Is there any way to get the formula to work towards the very bottom of the 2nd page?

Tx. If you look in the excel sheet page two there are prices and a formula to calculate the subtotal. Its the subtotal formula that needs to work...

Let me try to get table functions in Word to do that and get back to you

check the attached file
Just note that you need to add a value in all columns you want added, even if that is a zero (0)
