Wouldn't it help if you first change the various files into the possible format to be included (one of the three formats you mentioned) and then embed them?

I'm sorry, but I can't offer you more than that, a specialist would have to take care of the problem, maybe someone else can be found 🙂

Sorry that I took your time and couldn't give you a quick solution.

Wish you a nice day.

Thank you NikolinoDE, I appreciate it :)! 🙂Unfortunately, I've tried those available Excel support solutions and it's not working in my case - not sure why :(.😞

The thing is when I try to embed an object I should be able to choose from different file types and there are only 3 types of Word docs. Even when I try to embed the object from the file, an alert shows that the object cannot be embedded. My version is in Polish :D. I'll attach some screenshots so you can see the issue.
