--- Comment #9 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Actually, the embedded documents have generic names--what shows as file names
are icons in EMFs linked to the embedded OLE document object.

Extracting the text from within the EMF to assign as a file name would be out
of scope, clearly a WONTFIX

And to extract the embedded documents--much simpler to use a Zip utility (I
prefer 7-zip) to open the OOXML docx archive's word\embeddings directory, the
documents are listed with generic names and can be copied out intact. Then
rename as preferred. 

In this case...
Microsoft_Excel_Worksheet2.xlsx,
Microsoft_Excel_Worksheet5.xlsx,
Microsoft_Word_97_-_2003_Document1.doc,
Microsoft_Word_Document1.docx,
Microsoft_Word_Document3.docx,
Microsoft_Word_Document4.docx,
etc.

The linked EMF image icons of the file "name" are in the OOXML docx archive's
word\media directory.
