Lotus Notes properties are those properties Lotus Notes maintains on the embedded OLE object or ActiveX control. In addition, an ActiveX control object may have other properties, native to its application, some of which may not be editable. For a description of a control object's other properties, refer to its source documentation.

1. With the document in Edit mode, click the OLE object or ActiveX control object. A new menu title that reflects the application type will appear on the Lotus Notes main menu bar. For example, if the object is a Lotus 1-2-3® OLE object, the menu title will be Workbook.

2. From the main menu bar, click new menu title > Edit Properties.

The object's properties will display in alphabetic order in your Preview pane. The Lotus Notes properties are recognizable because they appear in parentheses. These are the properties for an embedded OLE object:



And these are the properties for an ActiveX control object, which has more than Lotus Notes properties:

4. Double-click an item listed under Property Value and enter your new value. Continue selecting and modifying values to the properties as needed.

Note As soon as a property value is edited, it is applied to the object.
