OLE won't open

[Aaron]

I saved a word document as an embedded object. Now when
I double click on the file nothing happens. This
database is shared in our office, and some people can get
it to open and other can not. Any ideas on what is
causing this?

Thank you,

Aaron

Funny you should ask; just ran into this same problem
today so am assuming some of your folks have been upgraded
to Office 2003.

"This problem occurs because Access 2003 cannot find the
OLE Server that can correctly interpret the OLE object
header information."

Seems the install removes Photo Editor so you need to re-
install that from an old office install disk for a fix.

See this MS article for more info:
