Integration Is Grrreat!!… Integrating
Microsoft Office programs can increase your efficiency, productivity and creativity!
Leslie Eufrazio, Author 404/07/23
However…
Embedding and linking can cause your system to run very slowly. Especially if your computer has limited memory.
Leslie Eufrazio, Author 504/07/23
Three Terms To Remember
1. Object
2. Source
3. Destination
Leslie Eufrazio, Author 604/07/23
1.Object

Examples: A graph or chart created in
excel. Miniatures of slides created
in PowerPoint. An outline created in word.
Leslie Eufrazio, Author 704/07/23
2. Source
Program and file from which you bring the object.
Leslie Eufrazio, Author 804/07/23
3. Destination
The program and file into which you will place the object
Leslie Eufrazio, Author 904/07/23
Mini Review
An OBJECT Is the item you bring from the source to destination
program
The SOURCE Is the program from which you bring the object
The DESTINATION Is the program file in which you place the object
Leslie Eufrazio, Author 1004/07/23
An Integration Term: OLE Object linking and embedding.
Refers to the ability to perform “IN PLACE EDITING.”
The ability to link or embed.
Not supported by all software programs..
Critical reason why Microsoft Office is the preferred by home and business users.
Pronounced Ole-LAY.
