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

2021-12-15T12:33:33+00:00 Hi Stephen, Since today I have the same problem with pasted excel objects in word: they aren't visible.
Although it isn't a solution: it's still possible to paste a excel-object as an image.
Updating your mac tot MacOS Monterey 12.1 isn't the solution, I just find out.

2021-12-15T01:44:21+00:00 I have the same issue with Word for Mac 16.56 (21121100). The problem continues in Safe Mode. The files work fine with Word Office 365 in Windows. Any suggestions how to resolve?
This problem occurred all of a sudden. I use this function quite frequently. I suspect it is a bug in this version of Word for Mac, as it worked fine a couple of weeks ago.
