When you select the Microsoft Word option in the Exports dialog (see Exports dialog), some extra options are available. To use this option, Microsoft Office 2007 or later must be installed on your computer.

You might need to set an access security setting in Word before you can run the export. See Enabling security access for Microsoft Excel, Word, and PowerPoint exports.

Use this option to specify whether the export should create tables only, charts only, or both tables and charts, and whether the chart or the table should be shown first. Note that the charts are created using Microsoft Excel, so you need to have both Word and Excel installed to be able to use the chart options. For details of the way in which you can display data in charts, see Understanding charts.

If you have chosen to export charts, select a chart type from the list. If you want to use a custom chart that you have created in Excel, type in the name of the custom chart.

The chart type you select is used only if you have not specified a chart type for a table using the Table Properties dialog on the View Tables tab.

Hides Word during the export. This makes the export run faster.

Open the file that contains the exported tables in Word.

Enter the name and location of a Word template to use, or click the Browse button to select the template. Leave this box blank if you want to use the default template. For more information, see Formatting the output in Microsoft Word.

Check this box and enter a name and location for the output file, or choose the Browse button to browse to the folder where you want to save it. If you do not specify a save location, and the Launch after export option is also not selected, you are prompted to either launch the associated application or select a save location.
