Well Yes, you certainly _should_ have - especially since you posted to PC
Word newsgroup
It's a;ways a good idea to post version info even if you
*know* you're in the right group.
When I double-click
the object, it automatically opens Excel and I have to edit the object
from Excel. Unless there's a way I'm missing that would allow me to
edit the object in the Word document?
If this is a *new* Excel Worksheet Object created in Word I'm afraid you've
run into one of the major differences between Mac/PC Word - OLE
implementation. I don't claim to be able to explain "why" but the simple
fact is that embedded Excel worksheets created in Mac Word are limited to
displaying a meager 5 columns & a paltry 10 rows.
If you need to display more than that you'll have to create an Excel
workbook file then use either the Insert Object From File method *or*
Copy Paste Special MS Excel Worksheet Object. Either should work in a
similar fashion & you also have the option to link rather than embed.
For future reference the group you want is microsoft.public.mac.office.word
or one of the others listed he
