BOOL CreateFromFile( LPCTSTR lpszFileName, REFCLSID clsid = CLSID_NULL, OLERENDER render = OLERENDER_DRAW, CLIPFORMAT cfFormat = 0, LPFORMATETC lpFormatEtc = NULL );
Return Value
Nonzero if successful; otherwise 0.
Parameters
lpszFileName
Pointer to the name of the file from which the OLE item is to be created.
clsid
Reserved for future use.
render
Flag specifying how the server will render the OLE item. For the possible values, see OLERENDER in the OLE documentation.
cfFormat
Specifies the Clipboard data format to be cached when creating the OLE item.
lpFormatEtc
Pointer to a FORMATETC structure used if render is OLERENDER_FORMAT or OLERENDER_DRAW. Provide a value for this parameter only if you want to specify additional format information beyond the Clipboard format specified by cfFormat. If you omit this parameter, default values are used for the other fields in the FORMATETC structure.
Remarks
Call this function to create an embedded OLE item from a file. The framework calls this function from COleInsertDialog::CreateItem if the user chooses OK from the Insert Object dialog box when the Create from File button is selected.
For more information, see OleCreateFromFile, OLERENDER, and FORMATETC in the OLE documentation.
