I am using the GetLinkedPath() function provided by MS (http://
support.microsoft.com/kb/199066) to extract the path to embedded OLE
objects, but it is only working properly for bound object frames
having a DisplayType property set to 'content' (as opposed to
'icon'). This property is apparently read-only, as I cannot set it in
code.
Since these specific OLE objects are displayed in their bound object
frame as icons, calls to the GetLinkedPath() function only return the
path to the icon image (ex: C:\WINNT\Installer\
{AC76BA86-1033-0000-7760-100000000002}\PDFFile.ico)
Does anyone know how to access the path to an OLE object that is
displayed as an icon, or a way to set the DisplayType property to
'Content'? (manually this would be done by selecting the OLE/DDE links
menu item under Edit)
