Hi,
I'm not sure about the OLE object not "package"..Can you explain or point me
to some links...
I guess, it is unpackage or OLE object is working fine because documents
that I inserted using Insert Object in the form field, I can actually open
them by double-clicking and they would open fine.
I mostly insert MS Word documents...
I know that interMedia can display this format.
I did a test of inserting/importing a Word document directly into the Oracle
table in a BLOB field and it did display fine using interMedia.
It seems that the problem of not displaying properly is when I insert the
documents in the front-end using the Insert Object in Access.
Thanks,
Arman
