MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / June 2006Unable to edit / open embedded Excel Objects within Powerpoint 200
Hi, Attempting to edit an embedded Excel object within Powerpoint 2003 is resulting in "Microsoft Office PowerPoint can't start the application required to open this object. An error ocurred and this feature is no longer funtioning properly. Would you like to repair this feature now?" If you press "yes" A progress bar appear showing the following message: Installing: Application server. The server application, source file, or item can't be found, or returned an unknown error. You may need to reinstall the server application. This is within a WinXP environment with McAfee AV. Does anyone have any ideas ? Many thanks in advance Tim Can't edit Org Chart, Graph, Excel (error msg: "server application, source file, or item can't be found") http://www.pptfaq.com/FAQ00236.htm  SignatureEcho [MS PPT MVP] http://www.echosvoice.com What's new in PPT 2007? http://www.echosvoice.com/2007.htm Fixing PowerPoint Annoyances http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/powerpointannoy/ PPTLive!
