I'm running Word version 16.56 and Microsoft Excel Worksheet Objects is not displaying at all either in old .docx files which contained them or when I try to paste it into new files it simply beachballs. FWIW I am running Excel version 16.54.

Is this a known bug?

I chose the 'Current channel (preview)' box and then checked the update automatically boxes and it automatically updated to the 16.57 version of Word. That solved the problem with the embedded excel table.

Jeg håper det fungerer for deg!

Cheers

    Hi PhilipAllery,

    You can simply download and install the earlier version of Word, and then ensure to uncheck Automatically keep Microsoft Apps up to date under Help > Check for Updates from getting Office aps auto update.

    Regards,

    Neha
