Paste an Excel table into Gmail or Outlook
Paste your spreadsheet cells below and get a clean table that keeps its formatting when you paste it into an email. Free, unlimited, nothing uploaded.
How do you paste an Excel table into an email without breaking it?
Excel tables break when pasted into email because Gmail and Outlook strip the stylesheet Excel copies; the fix is a table with styling written inline onto every individual cell. StaysPrivate rebuilds pasted spreadsheet cells as exactly that HTML table for email — paste your cells, pick a style, click Copy for email, and the borders and header row survive in Gmail, Outlook (desktop and web) and Apple Mail. The table is built in your browser, so client names and figures never touch a server.

Frequently asked questions
Why does my Excel table break when I paste it into an email?
Excel copies its formatting as styles that email clients strip out for security. Gmail and Outlook only reliably keep styling that is written directly onto each cell — which is exactly what this tool produces.
How do I use it?
Select your cells in Excel or Google Sheets, copy, and paste into the box below. Pick a style, click Copy for email, then paste into Gmail or Outlook. The table arrives with its borders and header intact.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No. The table is built in your browser — pasted data never touches a server, which matters when the table contains client names, prices or internal figures.
Does it work with Outlook as well as Gmail?
Yes. The styling is applied inline to every cell, which is the one approach both Gmail and Outlook (desktop and web) render consistently. Apple Mail and mobile clients work too.
Can I get the raw HTML instead?
Yes — switch to the HTML tab to copy the markup, useful if you are building a newsletter or a template.
