How to embed entire files into a Microsoft Word document

In order to attach an entire file to a Word document, so the readers can download and save that file to their workstations:

1) Open the main document in Microsoft Word.
2) Click the Insert menu to display inserting options.
3) Choose Object.
4)This will open a dialog box. You are presented with two tabs: Create New and Create from File.
a. Create New allows you to create a new document or even image of your choosing from the list within that tab.
b. Create from File allows you to browse to a file you have already created.
5) Choose Create from File and click Browse to locate your file.
6) You have several options as to how to insert your file.
a. If you do not check the check boxes below Browse, the entire contents of your document will be displayed within your current document.
b. If you check the box, Link to File, you insert the entire contents of the file, but can click the link to open the file separately in its own window or application. For instance, inserting an Excel document will display the spreadsheet. When you click on the spreadsheet, it will open in Excel as a separate document.
c. If you check the box, Display as Icon, only an icon will appear in your document. This option allows you to change the icon and its caption. Clicking the button, Change Icon will give you the opportunity to change the caption to something other than the file path. For instance, you may have a spreadsheet as Figure 2. You can change the caption to Figure 2, so readers know what they are clicking. Upon clicking the icon, the file opens in its appropriate application.
