OLEClass property - Need a list

[Blondie]

I am trying to find a listing of the OLE Classes for bitmap, jpg, tif, gif,
etc. Any ideas?

 

[Stephen Lebans]

It would be completely dependant upon the application used to insert the OLE
object. What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

I am Loading OLE Objects from a folder into a table. Part of this is the
class name. I am automating this with another table listing the possible
extensions that would be acceptable. The objects to be loaded are pictures
and so far I have only found the class for a bitmap.

Well to get you started, look at the Inventory function of the OLE extractor
on my web site here:
http://www.lebans.com/oletodisk.htm
NEW - Dec 14/2005 ExtractInventoryOLE.zip A2K or higher ONLY! This
version saves the entire contents of a table containing OLE Objects to disk.
Does NOT require the original application that served as the OLE server to
insert the object. Supports all MS Office documents, PDF, All images
inserted by MS Photo Editor, MS Paint, and Paint Shop Pro. Also supports
extraction of PACKAGE class including original Filename. Contains function
to produce a full Inventory of the OLE field including LINKED path and
Filenames. Uses Structured Storage API's to read the actual contents of the
field. Version BETA 1.56

I have added support for several other OLE servers(applications used to
inert Image objects) and those apps that insert as STATIC Picture objects.
Will be posting the update tomorrow.
