Inserting linked or embedded objects into another application

Corel PHOTO-PAINT lets you create OLE objects that you can insert into other applications. You can link an object by copying it from Corel PHOTO-PAINT and pasting into another application. You can also embed an object from Corel PHOTO-PAINT into another application as an OLE object.

When you insert an embedded object by dragging, the application windows of both Corel PHOTO-PAINT and the destination application must be visible.

Dragging an object from one application to another deletes the object from the source application and places it in the destination application. If you want to leave a copy of the object in Corel PHOTO-PAINT, hold down Ctrl + Shift while you’re dragging.
