Do you see anything at all in place of the spreadsheet, such as { LINK }? (Note that more commands follow "LINK.")



If that is what you see, you have Word set to display field codes instead of field results. Press Alt+F9 to fix it.

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for replying. No, I don't see anything but what is in the two screen shots. I've tried finding a solution to this problem on the internet, but to no avail. I am aware of the field codes setting.

Any ideas of what might be the problem? I am completely at a loss, and I am usually able to solve my computer issues myself.

Best,

Magnus

Try the following: Click File | Options | Advanced. Under "Show document content," make sure that "Show picture placeholders" is cleared and that "Show drawings and text boxes on screen" is selected.

At File | Options | Display, make sure that "Print drawings created in Word" is selected.

It isn't obvious that the options are relevant for embedded/linked objects, but these objects are basically treated as images or drawings as far as the display options are concerned.

Hälsningar
Stefan
