Hi,

I'm linking from Word to Excel. I have a range of cells in Excel, which I copy onto the clipboard. Then I switch over to Word, navigate to where I want to paste the Excel data, right click and select "Link and Keep Source Formattting". Seems simple.



But instead of my Excel data appearing in the Word doc, I get something in curly brackets that looks like this;

{ LINK Excel.SheetMacroEnabled.12 <path.xlsm> <datarange> \a \f 4 \h }

Is there some setting I need to change? I can't figure out why this data isn't displaying.

Thanks!

Press Alt+F9 to hide field codes and display field results.
