    Unable to reopen a document with an oleobject

    Hi,

    as I've wrote in an earlier post I want to create a word 2007 file that carries various other documents (e. g. a pdf).
    In order to see how things may possibly work I created a file in word 2007 dragged a pdf to it and saved it.
    Then I changed the suffix .docx to .zip, unzipped it and then zipped it again without any modification.
    When I tried to open that file then in word 2007 it fails. Word says the file is damaged.

    When I do the same with a normal word text file i. e. with no pdf in it, there's no problem.

    This behaviour is quite strange. Has anyone experienced the same and found a solution?

    Cheers
    Helmut
