helping a friend

hi

my friend has a vb question but i don't understand it i was wondering weather anyone else can help

here it is

when you link to an external file using OLE, for example excel. you have the
choice of using an icon to represent it.
How do you rename the label that the icon has?

cheers

Sounds like homework ;)

Anyway, when you add an ole control you get the 'Insert Object' screen, Choose excel, then choose change icon, in there you will find a textbox labled 'Label:' there you can change it.

cheers mate
