Can't work on Excel tables which I copied to Word

[Maccle]

Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel

Hello altogether,

I copied an Excel table to a Word document.
Afterwards I doubleclicked on it to change
something. But first Excel gives an crash report
and wants it to send it. And Word says, that it
can't work on the table.

Could someone help me with this?

The copied table was copied from a normal
* .xls file. Not this new and stupid file format.

Thanks,
Maccle

Make sure your installation of Office is up-to-date ‹ current version is
12.1.2 ‹ then repair disk permissions.

Since I'm not seeing anything of this here it isn't an issue with the
programs themselves. If the above suggestion doesn't resolve it reply with
more details about the nature of the content as well as the method you used
to paste it into the doc. It would also be beneficial to know a little
something about the Mac's specs as well as your OS X level.

BTW - I'm not sure what you mean by "stupid" file format - the OXML format
used by Office 2007/08 is significantly more stable and far more capable
than what was used in 97-2004. If you're having other issues they could all
revolve around some central issue that needs to be addressed.
