Excel and Word Problem

[Jim Laurie]

Has anyone seen this error before? And if so how can you
fix this?

When trying to insert an EXCEL spreadsheet object into a
WORD document, I get the following error:
"Microsoft Word can't start the application required to
open this object. An error occured and this feature is
no longer working properly. Would you like to repair this
feature now?"
When I click yes, it still does not work. I have tried a
few times, each time with the same result.

I believe this may be the situation where it's a setting in Excel that you
need to change. In Excel, go to Tools | Options | General and make sure that
"Ignore other applications" is not checked.
