Embedded Ole object disappears

[malum]

In the form view of the db I have a bound box for an embedded ole object
I use it to embed Word documents for each db entry (The database is for works of art and the Word document is the description of each work of art which often contains Chinese Characters, hence the Word Document)

The box is set to show an icon (The Word Icon)
Upon entering the data and moving off the record, subsequent return to to the record sometimes shows that the icon is gone from the box, it is blank.
Clicking the blank box brings up the Word Document but then closing the Word Document and re-clicking the blank box dos not bring up the Word Document.
The standard message saying that the ole object is empty appears and all the data from the Word Document is lost.

this has only happened since moving to Office 2007. I upgraded the db to 2007 format and we are using Word 2007.

A Google of the symptoms doesn't bring any meaningful results, does anyone have any ideas?

I tried to keep this as short as possible (which wasn't easy) if you need more info just ask

Thanks

as an update it only happens when I chose to embed a word 2007 document (I have 2003 still installed here and if I choose that option it doesn't happen, even though the embedded document opens in Word 2007)

I have the same problem :
Some word embeded documents disappears from the access database when editing them.
The db has migrate from 2003 to 2007 and last to 2010.

Do you have solve this bug ?
Thank's

Ditched the access in the end and now use an online database in Sharepoint
