    Do you also have the LINKED document or maybe you don't and therefore can't open it as the error states?

    Hi steve,

    Yes i have the linked document but i cant say linked document i mean to say it's attached in the source document.

    In word 2007 insert->object->Create new or create from file two tabs are displaying. If we select create from file then we have to select the path.In create from file tab two more options are there 1 Link to file 2 Display an icon.Link file is not checked only display an icon is checked.

    Have you checked that you have msxml on your computer - search for msxml*.*. My guess is that you have, but I did see in one MS article that msxml2 is no longer supported by MS.

    The latest is ......

    MSXML 4.0 Service Pack 2

    But as I said elsewhere Word at this depth is completely foreign to me.

    Regrettably I can offer no further input here - the only hit on Google for that error message is your post.

    You might like to post in the MS Office Discussion Groups
