About Word to Excel
A table in a Word document is easy to read but hard to sort, filter or add up. This converter copies every table in your .docx file into an Excel workbook, so each value sits in its own cell, ready to work with.
Each table gets its own sheet, named Table 1, Table 2 and so on, in the order the tables appear in the document. Headings, paragraphs and other text outside the tables are left out. Cells merged across columns or down rows in Word stay merged in Excel.
Numbers that can only mean one thing, such as 1250 or -3.5, become real numbers you can calculate with. Anything that could be read two ways stays text, exactly as written: codes with a leading zero like 0123, amounts with a comma, and dates. A table placed inside a table cell becomes lines of text in that cell.
Fonts, colours and borders are not copied; you get the values, with each column made wide enough for its text. The document is read in your browser and never uploaded, which matters for price lists, rosters and reports with personal details. Old .doc files from Word 97 to 2003 need to be saved as .docx first.
Questions and answers
It is left out: only tables are copied, one sheet each. A document without any table gives a clear message instead of an empty workbook.
Not directly. Open the file in Word or LibreOffice, save a copy as Word Document (.docx), and convert that copy.
Yes. Cells merged across or down in Word are merged the same way in Excel, with the text in the top-left cell.
To keep them exactly as written. A code like 0123 would lose its zero, and 1,50 or 1.500 mean different amounts in different countries, so only numbers that can be read just one way become numbers.
