4. In the OLE Verb field, click the down arrow to display the OLE
verbs available for the selected OLE object. Click a verb in the list.
5. Click a security code.
To restrict access to this object, assign the appropriate security
code. For example, you might want to restrict access so only a
senior operator can edit an embedded spreadsheet. For more
information about security, see Chapter 10, Adding security.
6. Click Apply.
Attaching other types of animation to OLE
objects
You can attach many types of animation to OLE objects—just as you
can with other objects.
And like other objects, the type of animation
you attach depends on the object. For example, you could attach
visibility animation to a spreadsheet and then create a button that,
when selected, would display or hide the spreadsheet. This could be
used to show or hide various shift reports or management summaries
contained in embedded spreadsheets or database forms.
Configuring ActiveX control
With ActiveX control, you can map RSView32 tags to an ActiveX
object’s properties, and map RSView32 commands to an ActiveX
object’s events.
You can change an ActiveX object’s properties without using a tag. If
you choose this method, the object’s properties do not change
dynamically at runtime. For more information about making static
changes to an object’s properties, see “Using the ActiveX Property
Panel” on page 11-75.
For details about how to create an ActiveX object, see “Creating and
editing ActiveX objects” on page 11-73.
