Messagebox on Embedded Object
Hi
I have Office XP sp3 and Windows XP sp1. Once I embed a linked object into a document ( a company logo which is at a fileshare, user has read-only rights to that picture) that document always asks for a user input " do you want to update linked object". That is a annoying feature, how do I get rid of that messagebox? Thanks Timo |

Hi ?B?VGltcHVyaQ==?=,
I have Office XP sp3 and Windows XP sp1. Once I embed a linked object into a document ( a company logo which is at a fileshare, user has read-only rights to that picture) that document always asks for a user input " do you want to update linked object". That is a annoying feature, how do I get rid of that messagebox? 1. You shouldn't use Insert/Object to link in a graphic. Use Insert/Graphic/From file with the link option, instead 2.
