OLEFormat Object

Remarks

The LinkFormat object contains properties and methods that apply to linked OLE objects only. The PictureFormat object contains properties and methods that apply to pictures and OLE objects.

Example

For Each sld In ActivePresentation.Slides
    For Each sh In sld.Shapes
        If sh.Type = msoLinkedOLEObject Then
            If sh.OLEFormat.ProgID = "Excel.Sheet" Then
                sh.LinkFormat.AutoUpdate = ppUpdateOptionManual
            End If
        End If
    Next
