Make the text as small as you can in excell (4). Then auto size the rows and columns. Then copy and paste into Word. This should make it so you can see all the table. Then you can formatt it as you like

as for numbers - word has a stupid autonumbering system.

You could always import the excel table. Insert object, create from file and browse for your source data. Then if you need to modify it just double click and it will open up the data in Excel.

Good Luck!
