Keep in that this isn’t the only Excel to Word converter, but you might get different results depending on the service you use. Note that third-party services will store your files, at least temporarily, so it might not be a good idea to share any sensitive documents.

As you can see, it’s easy to import Excel data to Word, but if want to convert an entire document quickly, you might have to rely on one of many free Excel to Word converter tools.

To learn more about Excel, we have a great guide on XLS vs XLSX files, as well as a great guide on how to convert Excel to CSV, so don’t miss it.
