Can't open an embeded excel sheet from MS word
Hello everyone,
I know that this question had been asked several times, but I just can't find a solution/root cause for it.
I can't open an embeded Excel sheet from an MS word doc. the excel sheet is inserted without any issues, however, when I double click on it to edit it, I receive the following error message:
"The application used to edit this file is Excel. Excel isn't installed on this machine. Please install the application."
My setup is as follow:
- Windows SP3 with all security updates and patches
- MS Office 2007 SP2 - up to date on patches and updates
- No MS Learning Essentials plug-in is installed
- nor any 2005/2008 SQL plug-in (as suggest in previous posts)
Have tried:
- running Office diag - came back with no errors
- did a repair on the MS Office 2k7 - still same issue
- uninstalled office 2007 completely, ran CCleaner, then ran through the install again, but still same issue.
Your help is greatly appreciated

I actually have tried the convert to binary trick, no go :(. we're using Symantic End Point for our A/V. Also please note, that some machines on the network have the issue, while others don't.
please advise

I was able to open the embedded object. Is this the file which opens fine on one machine but not the others?

that is correct. I can open the file w/o any issues on my machine, but not two others. I also ran a query against all three machine to see if there any 3rd party apps / plug-in, but there wasn't much difference if terms of the installed apps.

If the above doesn't help then try this.
1. Right-click on the Excel object
2. Click Worksheet Object -> Convert...
3. Choose Microsoft Office Excel Binary Worksheet
4. Click OK
After it converts it to a Binary worksheet, Change it back to Microsoft Office Excel Worksheet.
