Problem with PasteSpecial using LINK=True

[SHewes]

Hello,

I'm trying to find the code as to verify the source file of a PasteSpecial
Link.

To paste, I used the following line :
Selection.PasteSpecial Link:=True,
DataType:=wdPasteOLEObject,
Placement:=wdInLine,
DisplayAsIcon:=False

What happens is that when I copy the file to another folder, sometimes the
source PATH does not follow. So I want to make sure that all the PasteSpecial
Link have the same PATH and FILENAME.

I looking for a FOR EACH ... LOOP that scans all the PasteSpecials.

Thanks

Hi S. Hewes,

You won't find 'PasteSpecials' after the event. What you will find for linked OLE objects is (usually) a LINK field. For code to
update the paths, see:
