link to Lotus Database from Excel
 

I am trying to create a link to a Lotus Database from Excel spreadsheet. I
use the Paste Special command on the Edit menu to paste a Lotus Notes
document link into Microsoft Excel. But when I click to select the Paste
Link and the Display As Icon check boxes in the Paste Special dialog box, a
blank rectangle rather than an icon is pasted onto the spreadsheet. I
cannot active the document link by double-clicking it. Any advice?
