You can also insert OLE objects by:

copying the information from the source file onto the clipboard

and then choosing Paste Special

choosing Insert Object on the Edit menu. You can then select an

object type or file.

Converting OLE objects

The reasons to convert an object are:

to change any type of embedded vector–based object into a

polygon that is more readily manipulated

7.

to reduce the size of a graphic display file

Embedding an object in a graphic display increases the size of the
graphic file because the embedded object includes information
about its source application. This lets you double–click the object
and edit it using the source application. To reduce the size of the
graphic file, convert the object to an RSView32 graphic object.
You can no longer use its source application to edit the object, but
you can still use the editing tools in the Graphic Display editor to
work with the object.
