The OLE data type allows you to link to or embed various OLE-compatible objects, such as pictures, graphics, sound, spreadsheets and other files.
The only formatting you need to decide on at this stage is what caption (see Captions) you will have, if any, and whether or not to make it obligatory that each record contain an OLE object in this field (see Required property).
Once you have set up the OLE field and gone to the Table Grid View, you need to insert the OLE object.
Double-click on an OLE data type cell. This displays a box into which an object can be inserted.
Select File from the Insert menu to insert an existing object, or select New Object if you wish to create a new object.
For example, to insert a new Ability Spreadsheet into a Database cell, select New Object from the File menu and then select Ability Spreadsheet from the Object Type box in the "Insert Object" dialog.
Once you have inserted a new or an existing OLE-compatible object, you can resize the object window and edit the object's contents in the usual way. To edit the object, a spreadsheet say, double-click inside the object to put it in edit mode. All the familiar editing and formatting menus become available across the top of the window. To resize the object window, click once outside the window and then use the borders and handles of the window to move and resize the object.
