Editing problems with embedded Excel objects
 

Hi, Here's a weird one I'm hoping someone can help me with.

I have embedded a linked spreadsheet within PowerPoint, and when I double
click on it to edit, it opens up as expected, but when I left click on a cell
within, the program focus switches immediately to Excel. Not to a copy of
the embedded worksheet, but to whatever worksheet Excel happens to have open
at the time. I have to right click on a cell then press ESC in order to edit
my embedded worksheet. Quite frustrating. This happens with linked and
embedded worksheets, and also within Word.

This has been going on for some time now, and was the same in my previous
version of Office (2000).

Any help, or insight would be appreciated here.

Yours,
Andre
