Exporting and Importing Data

When you export data, you save an open document in a new format so that it can be opened in an entirely different program. When you import data, you insert a copy of a file (from the same or another program) into an open document. You can insert into a Word document a bookmarked section of a Word document or a specific range in an Excel worksheet. For example, you might import an Excel worksheet into a Word document to create a one-page report with text and a table. Or you might want to export a document as a web page or export text as XML data or in the standard Rich Text Format to use in another program.
