Greetings,
I have an end user with a Word document that has an embedded Excel file in it. She was able to open and use the Word and Excel files just fine before Jet was installed, but now it crashes. This has happened on an older computer and a brand new one with a fresh install. Has anyone else had issues with embedded files causing problems?
Thanks,
Tim

Jet Reports Historic Posts Hi Tim,
Unfortunately, embedded Excel files in other Office docs have always had problems with Jet. There are bugs in Office itself which causes this. We have looked into it multiple times and opened issues with Microsoft over it, but to date they have been unwilling or unable to fix it. Usually it doesn't actually crash, although often the embedded files becomes uneditable or unusable. You can open a support ticket with Jet support, but I doubt it's going to lead to a resolution to the issue. We highly recommend that Jet users do not embed Excel docs in other Office documents.
