It seams the whole OLE part of the installer is broken… - In fact, I just try with WordPad and it doesn't work either, so it's not . + In fact, I just try with WordPad and it doesn't work either, so it's not a Microsoft Word bug. Hi, i have the same problem. I try to embed an opendocument in a standalone application that use OLE controls. I try to embed, link or create new opendocument in a OLE control, but every test fails. Please, i don't want to install openoffice because i like libreoffice and their philosophy. It seems it’s related to activex components which have been disabled on the official released since it creates more bug than it solves. Thanks for your comment. So, if i want to embed opendocument in any application or other document, i must install openoffice? Very sad thing... It is true that embedding OLE objects feature (more precisely the needed registry settings) was bound to the ActiveX component that we don't install by default, but in fact it is not necessary to have that ActiveX component for OLE embedding. I'm not sure what problems can occur, if I enable those registry settings unconditionally. Please test. Andras Timar committed a patch related to this issue.
