insert objects problem
 
Following up on a previous question about inserting objects. I have found
that "Insert-Object-Create from File" approach works well with Excel2003 and
allows me to embed a wav file into the spreadsheet. However, when I try to do
the same, on another machine, with Excel2002, the program hangs up after it
inserts a blank object into the spreadsheet. However, if I cut and paste the
object from the Excel2003 file, opened up with Excel2002, then the object is
sucessfully embedded and I can write the VBA code to activate it.

Any comments or suggestions?

OK..no worries. There is a way around the problem if you embed the wav file
using the "Create New File" option.
