I am trying to link excel and word files to my Access report. Each record in
my database may have individual files to attach to it. I would like them to
show up as icons on the report that a user can double click to bring up. I
have been able to get the icons to show up on the report, but they are not
clickable.
 
You can't. A report is to be printed. There are no clickable controls on a
piece of paper.

If you need an interactive "report" then you want to build a form.

Data Access Pages also offer some level of this control, but I have never
been able to get them to work.
