That's a terrible idea. I sincerely hope not! If there is, I sure do hope that Microsoft fixes that vulnerability really quick or Kimvais i hope this is a joke. First of all Microsoft doesn't fix anything quickly, just look at the number of days IE has been left vulnerable to attack. Show 1 more comment. Active Oldest Votes. How do I do that? Do I download any software to attach the exe to pdf? I want to learn how to do it without metasploit.
Are there any resources that can help me understand the whole thing or just get me started? Visit our corporate site. All rights reserved. England and Wales company registration number Top Bottom.

Dec 12, The file size will grow by the size of the Excel file. So if your Word doc was kb and the Excel was kb then the Word file would become kb. Note: If you were to convert this word file to a PDF the hidden Excel file will not be included only the image objects of the spreadsheet.
An icon is inserted into the Word document. If you double click the icon you will notice that an Excel Workbook opens separate to the word Document. This is not linked it is embedded in the Word file.
So if your Word document was kb and the Excel was kb then the Word file would become kb. With this method you are not embedding the Excel Workbook; rather you are linking to it.
If you intend to send the file to someone then you would need to include the Excel Workbook. The advantage of linking is that the file size of the original Word document file size does not change.
The disadvantage is that both files and locations are necessary for the link to work. This is very effective if your Excel file is on a shared network drive. Resize the object to fit on the page. It is an image link to the file at its location. Note: If you were to convert this word file to a PDF the hidden Excel file will not be included in the PDF file only the image object of the last spreadsheet will show. You would need to press F9 key or double click the object to see the changes.
The Word file and the workbook would need to be sent together. If you wish to link specific data then a better way would be to just link the data that you need. Not the whole workbook. Hi Trevor, Issue I'm having is with method 4. When I try to email the linked files it seems to destroy the link. The nature of this project is that users need to be able to access linked Word and Excel files and the changes should only appear on their own documents.
I don't want it linked to one commonly used spreadsheet. Everyone has their own spreadsheet to fill in and it needs to generate unique Word reports for each person. I have created a template for Excel which is linked to a template in Word on my computer.
