Parameters

FilePath

Path and filename for the OLE object file

CreateLink

True to create an external link to the OLE object file, false to embed the OLE object on the document

Aspect

Viewing aspect of the object as defined in the DVASPECT enumeration (see Remarks)

XPos

x coordinate for the OLE object

YPos

y coordinate for the OLE object

ZPos

z coordinate for the OLE object

Return Value

Currently, only the drawing documents use the x,y,z coordinate position. Part and assembly documents place the inserted object at the upper-right corner of the model view.

The aspect argument uses the DVASPECT enumeration, which has the following values:

• DVASPECT_CONTENT = 1

• DVASPECT_THUMBNAIL = 2

• DVASPECT_ICON = 4

• DVASPECT_DOCPRINT = 8

See the MSDN documentation for additional details about the DVASPECT enumeration.
