Converting an OLE to a Word table

[keys2please]

I have a Word document that contains quite a few OLE objects. Each OLE object contains a single Word table. Is there a way to use VBA to convert these OLE objects to in-line tables (i.e., they would no longer we OLE objects, but actual Word tables)?

Thanks,

I have a Word document that contains quite a few OLE objects. Each OLE

object contains a single Word table. Is there a way to use VBA to convert
these OLE objects to in-line tables (i.e., they would no longer we OLE
objects, but actual Word tables)?Just double-checking: these OLE objects are word documents? Are they embedded,
or are they also available on disk as individual files? Which version of Word
are we dealing with?

These OLE objects are Word documents, and yes, they are embedded. We're using Word 2000 SR-1.

I have some commercial code already developed to address this problem.
