Problems with embedded excel sheets

I've been working with documents that were originally created in Word 5.1
for the Mac and had embedded Excel spreadsheets in them.  I've upgraded to
Microsoft Office for the Mac (so am using Excel 5 and Word 6 for the Mac)
and have been experiencing problems where I had none before.

When I double click on the spreadsheet in the Word document, it does bring
up Excel successfully.  However, I seem utterly unable to control the
number of cells which are displayed on the embedded sheet.  No matter how
I change the view window in Excel, I get the same result on the embedded
document.  In addition, if I close the Word document and then reopen it
later, ALL of the embedded spreadsheets are changed to a hugely different
scale (for instance 385% width).  Have others had similar problems?  Does
anyone have any suggestions for this?  Please use email if appropriate to
reply.  Thanks.
