The procedure for editing and updating objects from MDI server applications is similar to the procedure for SDI server applications, with the following exceptions:
If the focus changes from the embedded object window to a "normal" document window (that is, a window containing an existing file or a new document), the File menu reflects that of a client (see Figure 10). If the embedded object window regains focus, File menu reflects that of a server again.
When the user chooses the File New or File Open command, the window containing the embedded object remains open. Therefore, it is not necessary to display any warning messages about updating the object.
When the user chooses the File Save As command, the server application informs the client application (via the OLE DLLs) and the link follows the newly-saved file.
