Excel worksheets embedded in Word revert to original contents after modification

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I'm a translator. I translate a weekly report in Word format which
contains two embedded Excel worksheets. These worksheets contain both
text and figures. I dutifully translate the text from Spanish into
English. I send the completed job to the client, who on opening the
Word file finds that my translation of the text in the embedded
worksheets has reverted to Spanish.

This only seems to affect the two embedded Excel worksheets. Other
embedded artifacts, including charts done in Microsoft Graph, as well
as the body of the report and standard tables, are unaffected.

This happens consistently, report after report, and has forced me to
resort to sending PDF versions. I exchange such files with clients
regularly and it is the first time I see this kind of behavior.

I'm using Office 2004 for the Mac, the client is using a PC.

Ideas, anyone?

TIA.
