Can't Edit Word Object in Shared Excel Workbook

[bdonaldson]

I have a shared Excel 2002 workbook on a network drive that is accessed
by multiple people. Several of the worksheets in the workbook have
embedded Word objects for entering text. I just found that the Word
object cannot be edited while the Workbook is set to be shared. Does
anyone know a way around this or an alternative to allow users to enter
rich text into Excel?

Thanks,

Brian
