I want to copy/past named ranges in the excel sheet to a word document, including the following needs
1- Each table to start on a new page
2- Each table must have a caption; the caption is the contents of the first cell of the table; I don't know how to do this yet
3- The width of the tables can not be fit in portrait orientation and need to be landscape
4- Paper size A4
5- Keep all rows of the table in one page, so I need to make sure there is no extra line spacing
6- the Excel ranges are named as "Table_1", Table_2, ...

I searched, learned, and modified the following code, but it still does not behave as I want in the following.
1- the row height still has spacing, and I have to select the table and adjust the paragraph before and after spacing manually
2- there is a caption already added, which is only the default label with a number, not the one I intended to use
3- all tables do not start on a separate page

I appreciate any help, comment, or suggestion.
Many thanks
