Excel table in Word
I have an excel table in a word document. Usually I can double click the
table and it "opens" like an excel spreadsheet. In this particular document, I can't edit it because it won't "open". Any suggestions? |

It probably isn't linked to the Excel document, and is thus acting like a
simple Word table. You may have to recopy and repaste it to the Word doc, this time selecting a linked format. "Betsy" wrote in message ... I have an excel table in a word document.

Hi, Betsy
Mr. RichRd O. Neville has mentioned it correctly. You have to copy the cells and paste special as "Microsoft Excel Worksheet object". This will maintain a link a to the source document. I do understand that you must have performed this operation. But there are two possibilty: 1. The Excel application is not installed. In such situation the application opens with a Microsoft supplementary application which is s Microsoft supplectary Chart available under Insert Object 2. You application does not support OLE .2.0 functionally. In that case Excel has to open as a seperate instance like OLE 1.0 I have used this function several times to generate students performance, leave details data to be displayed on weekly basis. Note: You have to reinstall Excel again. Challa Prabhu "Betsy" wrote: I have an excel table in a word document. Usually I can double click the table and it "opens" like an excel spreadsheet.
