Default Get Path for Linked Pictures in Spreadsheet

Nick:

I was able to retrieve the SourceName when I insert the image as a linked
OLEObject, but as you said, linked OLEObject images do not display correctly,
even after I installed Photo Editor.

Even if I could get the image to display correctly, I dont know that I
would use OLEObjects. It was a simple matter for me to install Photo Editor
on my test computer, but it would be another matter altogether to install it
on all of the computers that use my software, because some of them are
permanently in overseas locations.

Its really unfortunate that there is no way to acquire the source name for
ShapeType msoLinkedPicture objects. That information must be stored somewhere
in the document. If only I could get to it.

Thank you for your help.
