    I'm running on Windows 7, using Office 2010.  I'm trying to use multiple EXCEL tables in my WORD document about every 15 minutes or so (while going in and out of each table), I receive this message, "Microsoft Excel is waiting for another application to complete an OLE action."  It won't go away, even after force closing my Word and Excel.  I've had to log out and restart my computer a few times already to get back into the document and successful work on the tables until it happens again.  I have found that saving after exiting out of each table helps a little but this message still appears.  We are an accounting firm that uses documents like this all the time and would like to incorporate excel documents and tables into word, without having to using two applications.  Am i missing a setting or step in completing this task?

    Thank you!
