Unregistered OLE objects

If the application that is associated with an OLE object is not installed on your machine, the OLE object is unregistered. For example, you do not have Microsoft Word installed on your machine and you open a module that contains a Word document. The Word document is an unregistered OLE object.

You can cut or copy unregistered OLE objects, and Rational® DOORS® objects that contain unregistered OLE objects. You cannot copy and paste a selection of text that contains an unregistered OLE object.

If you cut an unregistered OLE object and paste it into a different application, the OLE object is pasted as a picture. The data that was contained in the OLE object is lost.
