Hello all, hope you can help. I use Microsoft Office XP service pack 2, &
for some reason my word files with embedded objects won't work properly. The
file opens okay, but when I double click the embedded object to edit, I get
error saying "This object is corrupt or is no longer available". All I can
do next is click "OK" so can't edit the object. This only happens with word,
the other programs, excel & the like don't have this problem. I've tried
reinstalling & repairing, but it still won't work. This happens with old
files & newly created ones, & happens with all embedded objects. My only
other option is to completely uninstall office, then do a complete install
again. I don't really want to do this as it'll probably take ages to get
everything setup the way it was again, including getting Outlook to work as
my e-mail program.
I can still edit these files as I still have Microsoft office 97 on my
system, & this works no problem.
Thanks for any help in advance.
