OLE stopped working after installing Office SP3

T

I'm using Office 2000 and I use Object Linking and Embedding (OLE - I embed
Excel spreadsheets into Outlook's task reminder) by going to Outlook's menu
(Insert, Object, Microsoft Excel Worksheet) and embedding an Excel worksheet
into a task reminder. Now that I've installed Office Service Pack 3, it no
longer works. I can see the object's I've already created, but I can't edit
them. If I right click the object and click edit, nothing happens, and
double clicking the object doesn't let me edit it either - it does nothing.

So I uninstalled Office, reinstalled Office, installed SP1a and it was
working again. Then I installed SP3, and it's not working. I can create
more OLE spreadsheets, but as soon as I click out of it and then try to go
back to it to edit it, I can't.

Is there a registry setting I can tweak that will allow me to continue using
OLE?

THANKS!
