I need to e-mail a file that refers to Excel data. In my Word file, I have
embedded the Excel file as an Excel object that displays as icon. (No link
to original file.)

I then copy data from the embedded Excel object and paste it with a link in
the Word file. This way, I can e-mail it and everything stays in one file.

However, when I try to update the data in the Excel object, it only updates
the linked Word tables for a short time. As soon as I close the embedded
Excel object, the link seems to disappear and I get an error message when I
try to update links.

Any idea or suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!
