Default Problem saving word document with linked excel document

Hi,

I have a word document with an excel document linked as an icon (and a table
of linked data from the spreadsheet paste special-ed below the icon in the
word doc).
Users need to save a local copy of the word document for each project they
undertake (master is stored on the intranet) - they then click into the
spreadsheet from the word doc and save this as part of their project - this
has recently started to save over the master copy. Changes made to the master
copy overwrite all individual project documents. I'm sure this never used to
happen! Any ideas on why this is happening??

Thank you!
