Default Cannot edit Excel file with Word document open

Hi ?B?TWFydkluQm9pc2U=?=,

I checked the box under Tools/Options/General but I still get "read only"
prompt on Excel file and then a fail on DDE connection in Word???

Have you tried making sure the file isn't open at all in Excel when you try
to link to the workbook?
