I am trying to help someone with embedding an object link
into excel. When clicking on the link, it should open
say Paint Shop Pro 8. But I keep getting a message
stating "Cannot start the source application for this
object." The only way that it works is if the object is
open in PSP 8 but to me that just defeats the purpose.

Does anyone know how this can be done if PSP 8 is
closed? Thanks in advance for any help!
 
Did you try clicking the Create From File tab in the
Object dialog box? I tried it and it opened a closed file
in the associated program by double clicking the embedded
object.

Yeah, I clicked on the Create From File but nothing
except for the message that pops up. I did forget to
tell you that I am using Excel 2000, does that matter?
