Glossary
Linking To insert an object in a document using
Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) where
subsequent changes made to the object will
reflect in the document. An object is linked
using methods such as drag and drop or
copy and paste using the Clipboard. The
linked object remains a separate file.
Consequently, if you transfer a document
that contains a linked object to another
computer, you must also transfer the
original file to which the object is linked.
Both the object and target document must be
created in a Windows-based application that
supports OLE.
Microsoft ADPCM The ADPCM compression technique by
