I have word 2007 but I am working with word 2003 documents. In my document I
have many items that are linked to an Excel spreadsheet.

When I change these linked items to "Update Manually" and print the Word
2003 document all of the linked excel objects print out completely black.

If I leave these on the default "Automatically Update" then the objects
print fine. Is this a bug in word 2007? Please advise if this is fixable
because this is very frustrating!
