Word list into table?

I can't seem to figure out how to do this: I have a list of names (about 50) that I'd like to paste into a table. How can I do this?

Hi Lisa,


Do you want all of the names in the same column of your table?


If so, paste the single column list of names into a pages word processing document, select the list then go Format (menu) > Table > Convert text to Table.


If you want three columns of names, Insert a table, set it to three columns by 17 (body) rows, then:

  • Select the first 17 names on the list. Copy.
  • Click once on the top body cell in column A of the table. Paste.
  • Repeat with the next 17 names and column B.
  • Repeat with the remaining names, and column C.

Regards,

Barry
