Unable to open embedded word document from Excel
 
Hi,

I have Excel 2003 (SP3) installed on my computer. In an Excel file, I
inserted a word object (created from file, display as icon) and the insertion
worked fine.

When I try to open my word document from Excel, nothing happens. No error
message and the file doesn't open. It is like if my file icon is simply a
draw.

When I open the same Excel file with another computer(Excel 2003), I can
open my word embedded object easily.

In fact, I can insert Excel or txt object in Word document without any
problem but everything I insert in Excel doesn't work (word, txt, etc.).

So the issue seems to be related to my Excel.

Is there settings to activate to be able to open embedded objects in Excel ?

If not, what could be the problem ?

Thanks for your help !
