Linking Autocad Drawings to Word 2002

[Petee Boy]

I am having a problem linking a drawing created in Autocad
LT 2004. I can copy and paste without any problem into a
Word 2002 document. However, if I do a Paste Link, the
drawing in the Word document does not update automatically
whenever I revise or edit the original drawing in Autocad.

If I try to perform a manual update, I get an error
message that says this object is not a valid link.

Has anyone had a problem linking Autocad drawings in Word
documents?

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

It's either the format of the file (If you export as GIF or something
NORMAL like that, it'll probably work) or you dont have update links
on open set.
