Default Problem w/ PDF icon not appearing when embedded in Word document

Hi there,
Several of my coworkers and I are experiencing the same problem when we
embed a PDF file into a Word document - the PDF icon does not display. My
company is still in the dark ages with Word 2000, so I don't know if the
problem is related to that.
Basically, I will Insert ObjectCreate from fileCheck Display as Icon
Browse and select the PDF icon, but the icon doesn't appear once it's
embedded in the document. The PDF name will appear and I can still double
click on that to open the document, but the Icon doesn't appear so other
readers don't realize that it's a document link.

I can insert other types of files such as Word and Excel documents and those
icons will appear within my Word docs and I can insert PDF files into my
Excel docs and the icon will appear, so the problem seems to be limited to
inserting a PDF file into a word document. Has anyone else experienced this
problem and do you know how to fix it? Thank you!!
