Default Can Excel file be inside a word document and launchable

You can insert the Excel file as an OLE object. Make use of the Create from
File tab of the Object dialog box. Be sure to choose "Link to file" and
"Display as icon" in the Object dialog box.

To display the Object dialog box:

- Click Insert | Object. (Word 97-2003).

- Click the Insert tab on the ribbon, and then click Object (in the Text
group). (Word 2007).

I'm trying to create a set of documentation for a project and it requires
the
inclusion of several Excel files. In order to have one singel document can
that document be a Word document with the Excell files included and
launchable when clicked on? I have tried taking some of the details (From
A
Lotus Notes EMAIL) which has the Excel file at the bottom of a bunch of
text but the resulting insert into a WORD document is all thetext and an
ICON
for the file.....
