Edit Links to Files
This question may have already been asked, however I am having issues with
the microsoft search engine. I apologize if I am repeating someone else's question. Question: I want to embed all of the referenced images in my Microsoft Word document. I have been told by more than one person that I need to do this by going to: Strange-and Unnecessary-Windows-button Prepare Edit Links to Files However, for some reason "Edit Links to Files" does not appear in my "Prepare" menu list. Of the items listed, it contains the following: Properties, Inspect Document, Encrypt Document, Restrict Permission, Add a Digital Signature, Mark as Final, and Run Compatibility Checker. As you can see, nowhere in this list does "Edit Links to Files" appear. Is this an issue with my copy of Microsoft Word? |

Edit Links to Files
There are several different ways to create OLE links. For example, you can
use the Object dialog box to create a new OLE object or insert an OLE object from a file. To open the Object dialog box: - In Word 2003, click Insert | Object. - In Word 2007, click the Insert tab, and then click Object. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "scarlet_shark" wrote in message ...

Edit Links to Files
Thank you. That is helpful... However, my issue is that I have a large
document which was created by another employee who no longer works at the company. The document contains a large number of image references which point to a folder on a network drive. Is there any way for me to turn these images into embedded images so that I can transmit this file to other employees? "Stefan Blom" wrote: There are several different ways to create OLE links.

Have you been able to figure out which type of links these are?
Also, which version of Word are you using? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "scarlet_shark" wrote in message ... Thank you. That is helpful...
