You cannot insert OLE into V9

The Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) that was available in V8 is no longer available in V9 as it is obsolete. However you can mimic i.e a spreadsheet or Word document by saving as a .pdf (Portable File Document). You can then utilise HTML & Widgets by inserting the PDF. The benefits of using .pdf are better than OLE as you can have longer documents. OLE gave you a small snap shot and was very limited.

I am very dissapointed that the OLE feature in V8 is no longer available in V9. Your solution to use a .pdf file does not produce as good as a result as the OLE feature in V8. All I need is a quick small snap shot, which pruduces a quality result. It is a shame that the developers decided to remove this feature from the V9. Mike P.
