Hi
Please can someone advise, when I insert a Word document as an OLE-Object, it only inserts the 1st page and is there a way of inserting the entire document
Thanks

Re: Insert OLE Object
Hi Matt,
That's not possible because of the way that OLE works. When an OLE object is inserted into your output it is converted into a bitmap image. That is the only way to get a true rendition of the original page. Because of this, you can only get what fits in an image on a single page. To get a full Word document you need to do a full conversion by saving it as RTF and then importing it into your Help & Manual project (with Import in the main menu).
