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

    Thank you for that!

    i did manage to get to that Beta Channel, but i'm not even seeing any 16.58 update. I'm running Office365 Online, i don't know if it makes any difference.

    Guess, i'll just wait until they make it available across all their products. What a **** show this is.

    Thank you, RobertVinergia. After choosing Beta channel, what do you do? I can´t see what´s behind that option. What should I do next? Check the update automatically will not do, I guess?

    To install the 16.57 update, please go to the Help menu in Word and choose Check for Updates.

    This will launch AutoUpdate app which will probably want to update itself first, and then will update the rest of Office.
