    Hello,

    There are information I need to copy from the website to the word 2007. However, when copy/paste, it does not copy the tables and the format. Is there a way to copy the whole website? I've tried Save_as and does not work. Long time ago, someone was able to copy and paste the whole page to the word...

    Thank you,

    The ole' screen shot may work out if you just need a carbon copy. If you are saving the page for further use I would also suggest print to PDF using CutePDF then editing it in Adobe/Gimp or using the Scrapbook extension for Firefox to save the page. Good luck.

    I usually get the option to "match destination" or "keep source" formatting when pasting. There should be a little icon that pops up when pasting. Click on that and it should give you a few options.
