How do i extract embedded objects from a word doc?

[Guest]

I have a word document containing about 10 embedded word documents. I want to
save these separately in a folder on my hard disk. I don't want to go to each
one, double click it, and then save it in my folder. Is there a quicker way
to extract all these docs at one go?

Hi Savs

with 10 documents, the answer is probably: no, there isn't.

It certainly can be done in code, but coming up with the correct lines
in VBA takes more time unless you are a versatile coder and familiar
with the Word object model, and even searching for existing code is
probably a lot slower.

gives, well, only incomplete answers, alas.
