A correction to the description: "Both XLSX in DOC and XLS in DOC open in a new Calc window" <= This was supposed to be "both XLS in DOCX and XLS in DOC" (so the embedded format is XLS in both case). Additional detail: DOC with embedded XLSX opens Excel if installed, gives General OLE error if Excel is not installed. Repro on Linux (sans Excel).

Created attachment 134038 [details] Samples of XLS/XLSX embedded in DOC/DOCX formats When an object is embedded, there is the checbox: "Display as icon." If a spreadsheet is embedded, the behavior on double-click is different based on the above setting: - if it's unchecked, the table is shown, and can be edited in place, - is it is checked, an icon is shown, and a new spreadsheet application window opens for editing. In Writer, there are the following issues with opening combinations of MS Office formats of spreadsheets embedded in documents: - DOCX with embedded XLSX: double-clicking the icon opens the file for editing in-place instead of the expected new window, - DOC with embedded XLSX: double-clicking the icon opens Excel if installed. Both XLSX in DOC and XLS in DOC open in a new Calc window, though the windows are opened slightly differently. Observed with LO 5.4beta2 & 4.4.0.3 / Windows 7. Attaching a zip of four sample files with the four combinations.
