    Question Ole's have a border?

    When I insert a OLE object from Word I get a border around the text.
    How do you take it off or hide it?

    what is your OLEFRAME setting?

    from help:
    Controls whether a frame is displayed and plotted on all OLE objects in the drawing. The frame on an OLE object must be displayed in order for grips to be visible.

    Frame is not displayed and not plotted

    1

    Frame is displayed and is plotted

    2

    Frame is displayed but is not plotted

    Ahhh, try IMAGEFRAME. It has a 0/1 toggle for on/off.

    From R14 Help -

    To turn off selection of an OLE object


    1 Move the cursor over the object frame until the move cursor appears. (4-way cursor)

    2 From the cursor menu, choose Selectable.

    Selectable is a toggle that turns selection of the OLE object on and off.

    Worth a try?

    Try "tframes"
    I think that's the one for text/images and such

    Cool Re: Ole's have a border?

    I tried Tframes, not working. I think this might be a Microsoft Word setting. I don't know tried everything except the right one.
