Default I want to insert an excel document into a word document.

Well, sure - in either of at least 2 ways;

If you want to embed (not link to) the Excel file: In Word go to
InsertObject - Create from File. Once you select the Excel file put a check
in the box to Display as Icon.

If you _copy_ content from the Excel file: In Word go to EditPaste
Special - MS Office Excel Worksheet Object, check the Display as Icon box.

If you do want to create links (rather than embedding) just put checks in
the respective Link boxes you'll recognize in the same dialogs.

In versions previous to Word 2003, you could insert a document into a Word
document. It would show up as an icon within the Word document and act as
a
link, but the user would not need access to the original location of the
file. Essentially, it save a file within a file, so when you clicked on
the
icon, it would open the document in another window.

I need to know if this is still possible in 2003.
