Insert a bitmap into Word 97

Insert a bitmap into Word 97

Question:
I’d like to get a bitmap file (c:mypic.bmp) placed on a MS Word97 file (msfile1.doc) using Powerbuilder (6.5). I am interested in printing that file afterwards.

Answer:
The following commands will allow you to pick an image file and then insert it into an already connected PowerBuilder to Word 97 OLE session:

GetFileOpenName( 'Select the Image', ls_FP, ls_F, '*.*', 'Image,*.*' )lole_OEL.Selection.InlineShapes.AddPicture( ls_FP, FALSE, TRUE )
