You can make the table look better by improving the formatting. Headings and totals are made clearer for example. It can help the user to see where things are a lot easier. The formatting will automatically pick up the formulas and apply different formatting than to the data. It is also a quicker way of formatting than doing it manually. It gives consistency to the formatting.

Advantages of using Word over Excel when creating tables?

Word has specific facilities to create tables, which Excel does not. Excel is already in a tabular format, with its columns and rows, but Word allows you to do a table of a specific amount of rows and columns. It will also automatically allow you to have borders on it. If your table is purely for text, then Word is better. Word can do calculations in tables, something many people do not realise, but Excel is better for doing them. You can copy and paste a table with calculations from Excel into Word. You can then use Word to add some extra elements in formatting. Word is good for having more formatting for text that you may have in a table. If you want to mix a table with large amounts of text, such as having a report that includes some tables in it, then Word can deal with that very well. You can position the table within the document in whatever way you want. By just having some borders showing, you can use Word's tables facility to design different kinds of diagrams and charts that have a structured layout. So unless you have a large amount of numbers and calculations in your table, Word is a better option than Excel.
