Do you mean split cells?

Select the Word table and do a replace (CTRL+H) ; "Find What" = "^p"
(without the quotes -- this is the code for paragraph marker), "Replace
with" = something unique eg: $$$.

Once you've copied and pasted into Excel, do another replace ("Find What" =
"$$$" ; click in the "Replace with" box & type 0010 on the Number keypad
while holding down ALT ; click OK).

You may have to apply text wrapping (Format -- Cells -- Alignment) to top &
tail.
