There are two computers using Office 2019. There is a powerpoint presentation. There is an Excel table in the presentation. On the first computer, this table opens in embedded Excel. On the other computer, the Excel program is opened in a separate program. How can I open embedded excel? https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/cannot-open-embedded-ms-word-or-excel-in-a/0d9f0036-2133-46ba-b586-afb8fb396cce?page= 2 is actually the same problem here. But it was determined that there were two powerpoints. We also have such a situation. But this situation is the same on both computers. How can we solve the problem?

    Most likely, on the problem computer, you have 2 monitors set at different resolutions. That will cause OLE to open an embedded Excel object to open in a separate Excel window.

    Hi,

    Did this problem appear in all PowerPoint files with embedded Excel Workbook?

    Did you try to create a simple sample and check if this issue is still existed?

    Excel or PowerPoint is only backward compatible. The lower version of PowerPoint and Excel cannot open the table inserted by the high version of Excel.

    I suggest you check if this is the reason of your problem, just checking in to see if the information was helpful. Please let us know if you would like further assistance.
