Question. Is an OLE object not "packaged" in some way? If so, then it needs to be unpackaged before it can be displayed. It is unlikely that intermedia will know it is a Microsoft OLE object and needs to be unpackaged.

What document type do you save as the OLE object? How sure are you that intermedia can display that document type or even recognise its format?
