Object Linking and Imbedding. Objects inserted in a n application are either linked or embedded. A linked object remains separate from a client application’s document while and embedded object becomes a physical part of a client application’s document.
A way of sharing information between applications. A linked or embedded object created by one application can be placed in a document created by the same or a different application. With a linked file in a document, the document contains only a reference, or "link," to the real file, which resides elsewhere. With an object that is "embedded" in a document, the document actually contains a copy of the object file.
Special feature of Microsoft Windows that creates a special relationship between Microsoft Access and the application that created the object.
Object Link and Embedding. The specification that details the implementation of Windows Objects, and the interprocess communication that supports them.
Windows technology enabling different Windows applications to share information and functionality. An OLE link to a word processing package, for instance, would give you all the benefits of the word processor, embedded into your application e.g. MS Outlook.
Object linking and embedding. A special case of ActiveX that enables you to create applications that contain components from various other applications.
A program for data sharing that allows two non-compatible applications to work together when creating the document that is to be shared.

Stands for "Object Linking and Embedding." It can be pronounced as "O-L-E," or ...
Acronym for Object Linking and Embedding. Used for embedding or linking information created in one application into a document created in another application (ie: putting picture created in Photo House into a WordPerfect document).
It is a technique introduced by Microsoft to incorporate objects of one application into another.
Originally known as "Object Linking and Embedding”. A compound document technology from Microsoft that is based on its Component Object Model (COM). OLE allows an object such as a spreadsheet or video clip to be embedded into a document, called the container application. When the object is double clicked, the application that created it, called the server application, is launched in order to edit it.
Object Linking and Embedding. A Microsoft specification for linking and embedding applications so that they can be activated from within other applications.
An object system created by Microsoft. OLE lets the author invoke different editor components to create a compound document.

Object Linking and Embedding. A Microsoft Windows technology for presenting applications as objects within other applications and hence to extend the apparent functionality of the host (or client) application. Now on version 2.0.
Short for Object Linking and Embedding; a method by which applications can share information. Basically, it allows you to Cut something from one application and Paste it into another, and then edit the object in place. This second-rate technology (invented and pushed by Microsoft) has been known to cause Pentium-class systems to behave like 286's, and is responsible for much of the unecessary complexity found in Windows and Windows Applications. See DDE and Marketing.
object linking and embedding, allows creation of compound documents where parts of the document have been created using different applications.
(Object Linking and Embedding) software that allows a user to create a file in one application and incorporate it into another, while retaining the original file format and association to the program that created it. Windows and Macintosh operating systems allow for OLE.
Abbreviation of Object Linking and Embedding, pronounced as separate letters or as oh-leh. OLE is a compound document standard developed by Microsoft Corporation. It enables you to create objects with one application and then link or embed them in a second application. Embedded objects retain their original format and links to the application that created them. Support for OLE is built into the Windows and Macintosh operating systems. A competing compound document standard developed jointly by IBM, Apple Computer, and other computer firms is called OpenDoc.

Object Linking and Embedding. A proprietary interoperability technology developed by Microsoft Corporation to enable the interaction of embedded data objects across application boundaries.
Acronym for object linking and embedding. A technology for transferring and sharing information among applications. When an object is embedded in a compound document, the document contains a copy of the object; any changes made to the contents of the original object will not be seen in the compound document unless the embedded object is updated.
Object linking and embedding It is a function that allows to capture objects of other applications and to apply them or to stick them in the present application.
Object Linking and Embedding. A set of system services that provides a means for applications to interact and intemperate. Based on the underlying Component Object Model, OLE is object-enabling system software. Through OLE Automation, an application can dynamically identify and use the services of other applications, to build powerful solutions using packaged software. OLE also makes it possible to create compound documents consisting of multiple sources of information from different applications.
Object Linking and Embedding. Specification describing how to embed objects within other objects in order to activate more advanced functions.

A Windows standard created by Microsoft that allows programs to share information.
Object Linking and Embedding. A method of sharing information (objects) between application programs. When an object, such as a graphic or a document, is linked from one application to another, any changes to the object in the second application will show up in the original. When an object is embedded, the information is copied and permanently placed in the second application. Any changes made to the object only occur in the application where the changes are made.
Object Linking and Embedding. Microsoft-defined mechanism for program-to-program communication. OLE enables a user to create compound documents incorporating work from multiple applications.
Object Linking and Embedding.A way of connecting a file with objects from other applications.For example, a page layout file could have a spreadsheet chart, a word processing file, and a graphics file included.An embedded object becomes part of the document in which it is embedded, and is no longer linked to the source document.
Short for Object Linking and Embedding; a method by which applications can share information. Basically, it allows you to Cut something from one application and Paste it into another, and then edit the object in place. This second-rate technology (invented and pushed by Microsoft) has been known to cause Pentium-class systems to behave like 286's, is responsible for erratic drag-drop behavior, and is completely outclassed by competing technologies such as OpenDoc. See DDE and Marketing.
Object Linking and Embedding, Microsoft's greatest contribution to industrial control, allows operators to link the same object in several different applications.
Object Linking and Embedding. Pronounced oh-lay. OLE allows you to create an object within one program and link or embed it into another, thus allowing easily standardized formats. An example of this is how you can insert an Excel Worksheet Element into a Word document, and have it retain its functionality.

Object Linking and Embedding - Pronounced oh-lay, OLE is a software technology, an inter-process communication within the Windows operating environment. It allows the operator to embed one object within another, even though the different types of objects may have been created using different programs. OLE differs from traditional export/import methods. If the embedded object is updated by the originating program, the changes are also reflected in the embedding program. For example, a graph from a spreadsheet can be embedded in a word processing document. If the numbers in the spreadsheet are changed, the updates are reflected in the graph in the word processing document.
Object Linking and Embedding. A way to have software products work together and for instance embed a graph into a word processing document. Kind of a live link between two applications.
A COM-based technology developed by Microsoft that provides a wide range of services, including application automation, reusable controls, version management, standardized drag-and-drop, documents, object linking and embedding, and visual editing.
Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) - A Windows® function that links documents and allows updates to one document to affect the data contained in another.
Object Linking and Embedding: A way of connecting a file with objects from other applications. A linked object is displayed in a new document but remains in a source file/document - when a change is made in a linked object all files connected with it are automatically updated.
Based on COM, OLE provides integration among applications, even with diverse types of information. Introduced by Microsoft in 1992, OLE is more flexible, efficient, and robust than DDE. In industrial automation, OLE is used in the OPC (OLE for Process Control) standard.
Object Linking and Embedding. A feature in Microsoft's Windows that allows each section of a compound document to call up its own editing tools or special display features. This allows for combining diverse elements in compound documents.
(Object Linking and Embedding). A capability introduced with Windows 3.1 that gives all Windows applications a standard way of incorporating objects (i.e., text, graphics, or sound) created in other Windows programs. When you link an object between two documents, changes made to that object in one document automatically will be made in the other.
Object Linking and Embedding developed by Microsoft. Allows objects from one application to be embedded within another (e.g., taking an Excel spreadsheet and putting it into a Word document). ArcView Version 2 does not support the still evolving OLE standard. Instead, it supports DDE (see DDE). OLE support is planned for future releases of ArcView.
