Cannot Start The Source Application For This Object Excel

I have an Excel workbook in which, among other objects, I want to embed a couple of PowerPoint presentation templates which I want users to be able to edit for their own uses. I used the Insert>Object>From File method and installed with the 'display as icon' choice. I get the icon and test it. It opens PowerPoint and the presentation perfectly multiple times. When I save the workbook and re-enter it, I get a 'cannot start source application' message on all of the icons. I don't get that with Word objects embedded in the same manner.
Please help,
Thank you,
Charlie Carroll
