    Renaming of icon for embedded document will not retain after file is saved

    Hi Five All:

    Renaming of icon for embedded document will not retain after file is saved

    Maybe someone here knows:


    Have embedded a MS Word document into my spreadsheet, and it is displayed as an icon.

    Efforts to rename the icon from "Document" to something more definitive works, but reverts back to "Document" being displayed right after the file is saved. Thoughts on retaining the custom caption for the icon would be really neat.

    (Method I'm using to change the caption are:
    Right click the icon, chose document object,click on convert, change icon, and I change the caption in the handy caption field provided.)


    if it's any help, the address bar at the top displays "=EMBED("Document","")" when highlighting the icon. Efforts to change that by defining a name for the object or changing the field in the quotes have come up short as well.

    Many thanks for a method that retains it value.

    Pete
