Locate, select and insert supporting information
When creating a document in Microsoft Word, you may need to insert supporting information, such as a table, chart, or graph. Here are the steps to locate, select, and insert supporting information in MS Word:
Locate the supporting information: If the supporting information is already in another document or file, open that document or file and copy the information. If you need to create new supporting information, such as a table or chart, go to the “Insert” tab in the Word ribbon and select the appropriate option.
Select the supporting information: If you copied the supporting information from another document or file, go to your Word document and place your cursor where you want to insert the information. Then, go to the “Home” tab in the Word ribbon and click on “Paste” to insert the information. If you are creating new supporting information, such as a table or chart, you can use the tools in the “Insert” tab to create the information directly in your Word document.
Format the supporting information: Once you have inserted the supporting information into your Word document, you may need to format it to match the rest of the document. You can use the tools in the “Table Tools” or “Chart Tools” tabs to format tables, charts, and other types of supporting information. You can also use the “Format Painter” tool to copy the formatting from one part of the document to another.
Steps:
If you want to insert supporting information such as a chart, table, or image into your Microsoft Word document, you can easily do so by following these steps:
Open your Word document and place your cursor where you want to insert the supporting information.
Click on the “Insert” tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
Select the type of supporting information you want to insert. For example, if you want to insert a chart, click on the “Chart” option in the “Illustrations” section of the ribbon.

Once you have located the information you want to insert, select it by clicking and dragging your cursor over the relevant text or graphics.
Copy the selected information by pressing “Ctrl+C” on your keyboard, or by right-clicking and selecting “Copy”.
Return to your Word document and place your cursor where you want to insert the information.
