Chapter 10. Linking and Embedding
Linking and embedding are ways to include information other than numbers and formulas on a worksheet. There are quite a few different types of information you might want to include: text comments , links to web pages, controls, or even whole documents from other applications.
In this chapter, I show how to include the most common types of information through the Excel user interface, and I show how to create and control those items through code. I also cover how to make Excel read aloud—I didn’t know where else to put that!
This chapter includes task-oriented reference information for the following objects and their collections: Comment, Hyperlink, OLEObject, Speech, and UsedObjects.
