Hello!

We are intending to use linked objects (bitmap images) in some Word
documents. There is a problem that everytime the user opens document which
contains linked object a dialog prompts asking whether to update the linked
object. Our users do not like this and it is desirable that linked object
would be updated automatically
on the background. I read on Microsoft Office's site that it is possible to
control this prompt, but there were no instructions how to do this. Please,
does someone know how can I hide this prompt?

Thanks!

Peter

From the Tools menu, select Options and on the General tab, uncheck the box
against "Update automatic links at Open"

Hope this helps.
