Embedded objects with Password protection

[Simy]

Hi all,



I have a form made in word 2013, I have 3 embedded objects, 2 pdf and 1 word document. all "create from file" and "displayed as icon"

When I password protect the document (filling in forms option) I cannot click the embedded files, I have tried a section break before and after each link and not protecting these sections but while the section is not protected the links still won't work.

Any help or maybe alternative suggestions greatly appreciated.
