Word document with embedded file

by Michael H. Phillips <mhp@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 14, 2008 at 09:04 AM

I've been sent a Word document with an embedded file. The instructions from

the sender are "Replace the file libjdic.jnilib (copy it out of the Word 
document) in the 'lib' directory with the file attached below."

If I highlight the file icon in the Word document and copy it, I get 
"Clipboard contents: unknown" and pasting to Finder doesn't work.

If I drag the icon from the document to Finder I get a picture clipping, 
though the size (736KB) is way too high for a little picture clipping.

If, in Word, I highlight the icon and Control-click, Word tells me it's an

"Unknown Object".

If, in Word, I double-click the icon, Word tells me "Word cannot locate
the 
server application for Package objects."

This document is from a government department (Revenue Commissioners) so
it's 
almost certain that it issued from a Windows machine.

Anyone know of a way to extract this file?
