SYMPTOMS
When you create a link to a Microsoft Excel object while the Excel
worksheet is open, the object resembles a table with columns and rows. It
may include columns and rows that do not contain data. When you create a
link to the same Excel object while the Excel worksheet is closed, the
object includes only the cells that contain data. There are no extra empty
columns or rows. This problem occurs when you create the link via the
Create From File tab. (To locate this tab, click Object on the Insert
menu.)
If you create a link to the same worksheet while the Excel worksheet is
open, the object looks like this:
The object may also take on different characteristics, regardless of
whether Float Over Text is selected.
WORKAROUNDTo work around this problem and insert only the cells that contain data, close the Excel worksheet before you create the link to the file. To ensure that all objects have the same characteristics, choose one method to insert the objects. STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. Additional query words: 8.0 8.00
