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

    My autoupdate states that the latest version is 16.56, so nothing has changed.

    Hi,

    the updates are available on the update preview channel.I switched to preview and was offered to install the 16.57 versions. Just did a quick check and it seems to work.

    Thank you

    Hi Alex,

    Yes, that works perfectly now, but as you say, you have to change to the preview channel in the update window.

    Closing this one now, thanks to all...
