OLEType Property
Returns the OLE object type. Can be one of the following XlOLEType constants: xlOLELink or xlOLEEmbed. Returns xlOLELink if the object is linked (it exists outside of the file), or returns xlOLEEmbed if the object is embedded (it's entirely contained within the file). Read-only Long.
Example
This example creates a list of link types for OLE objects on Sheet1. The list appears on a new worksheet created by the example.
Set newSheet = Worksheets.Add
i = 2
newSheet.Range("A1").Value = "Name"
newSheet.Range("B1").Value = "Link Type"
For Each obj In Worksheets("Sheet1").OLEObjects
newSheet.Cells(i, 1).Value = obj.Name
If obj.OLEType = xlOLELink Then
newSheet.Cells(i, 2) = "Linked"
Else
newSheet.Cells(i, 2) = "Embedded"
End If
i = i + 1
Next
