Default Add a Word Document as a Tab in an Excel Document

I work on several documents that require both worksheets and written reports
- being able to add a word document as a new tab in Excel would be a neat way
of integrating the two into one file for storing/printing/emailing.

You could also embed the document into excel.

Insert|object|create from file

Thanks Jim, but this is not really workable when you are sharing documents
with other users on 2003 or xp

thanks Dave, being able to do this is kind of what prompted me to suggest
this. The whole embedding thing is just plain clumsy - you have to manually
resize the object, you dont get rulers and other features that are neat in
word. It is a workaround though...
