embedded file object is not displayed
Hi,
This is hopefully an easy question: I have recently come across a word document with an embedded object that shows only "Embed pbrush" rather than the object file. How do I fix the problem to show the object only? I have checked the file association so that the .bmp file opens Microsoft paint, reinstalled office 2000, checked that the object file is in the correct location and opens when double-clicked. When I right-click embedded object and select open or edit it correctly opens the file. When I choose convert option the following error shows "server application, source file or item cannot be found. Make sure the application is properly installed, and that it has not been deleted, moved or rename." I will be grateful for any information received, Mark Palmer. |

For the "embed pbrush" issue: Press Alt+F9 to switch between
display of field codes (what you see now) and field results. If that doesn't help, then in Word, click on Tools | Options | View tab | uncheck the boxes for "All", "Hidden text", and "Field codes" | Print tab | uncheck the "Hidden text" and "Field codes" boxes | OK. Regarding the error message when you try to edit an embedded object: If you're using Symantec/Norton AntiVirus, try disabling the Office Plugin that comes with it. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=329820 "How to use Office programs with the Norton AntiVirus Office plug-in" for more information. mark palmer - novice wrote: Hi, This is hopefully an easy question: I have recently come across a word document with an embedded object that shows only "Embed pbrush" rather than the object file.
