Ebedded objects not printing correctly
I have a word doc that was sent to me that has an embedded table. When I go
to print I get the character string {embed MSworks4sheet} instead of the table. Similarly, recently I tried a print merge from excel and instead of printing the addresses on the labels it just printed the embed string. The doc itself looks correct, but when I go to print it reverts to command strings. HELP |

Ebedded objects not printing correctly
Hi marksn,
Select the item(s) that result in the field code when printed, and press Ctrl+Shift-F9. This way, the field gets replaced by its result. You won't be able to edit the object by doubleclicking it any longer. Good luck, Cooz -- PS: If this is a satisfying answer to your question and you're logged in via the Microsoft site, please click Yes to "Did this post answer the question?". Thanks.

While what Cooz told you will work, you could have accomplished the same
thing by clearing the check box for "Field codes" on the Print tab of Tools | Options. -- Suzanne S.
