Hi there, I was hoping if someone could let me know if it is possible to import a table from word into Access
Thanks

Not directly.
However, what you could do is define a new table with columns that match those in the Word table, then simply copy and paste from the Word table to the Access table.
Hi there John F,
Thanks for the reply. Just tried it and achieved exactly what I needed -
thanks again
Take care
John's advice was spot on. For the future, you may want to consider using Excel as the "import from" app, as Access does have the ability to import right from Excel. Excel has other advantages as well, such as capabilities for validating your data before you import it.
Thanks for the tip on Excel Mathew, will be to sure to bear that in mind for the future.
