Excel file into Word

[Guest]

I want to put an Excel icon into a word document (like an attachment in an
email), but I can't seem to do it. If I cut and paste the icon into Word, it
pastes the contents of the Excel file, not "an attachment", and if I click
"insert", "file", it only list's Word files...

I have seen this in other documents, I'm sure...

Inside MSWord:

Insert|Object|Create from File Tab
Browse for your .xls file.

Check the display as icon on that dialog box.
