Handling embedded objects in Studio (MS Office Documents)

Just wondering how people handle embedded files in Studio.

AFAIK Studio doesn't handle them or am I mistaken?


I was surprised when I tested out MemoQ with a PPT file I had.

It extracted each embedded worksheet for me:

Here is the manual way for those interested:

Also there is this paid app, but it seems to only handle word:

    Have you had this request before from your customers? I was wondering how common this issue would be.

    Hi Jesse,

    I do come across this occasionally but it's not hugely common, so the result is any requirement to handle this in the product never sees the light of day!  Tom Imhof created the app as you know, but this is indeed limited to DOCX files, so it would be good to see an approach that handled Office files in general.  I don't know how easy this would be but clearly the Kilgray guys managed to make this a fairly seamless operation so it must be possible!

    Regards
