Word 2000 with Excel page created from Word's menu. I cannot double click
the spreadsheet on MY computer to edit the spreadsheet. I get:

Microsoft Word can't start the application required to open this object. An
error occurred and this feature is no longer functioning properly. Would you
like to repair this feature now?
If you click No, you receive the following additional error message:
The 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 renamed.

KB article did no good. Any other ideas? I can edit from other computers,
just not mine. I have 98 SE and have uninstalled and reinstalled Office 2000
Pro with SP1.
Thanks.

If you have Norton AntiVirus installed, disable its Office Plug-in. Also,
make sure that the box for "Ignore other applications" is not checked on the
General tab of Tools | Options in Excel.
