Hi Silambu,

It seems you have not OLE association...

"Windows provides file associations, so that a file type is associated with an application; eg you double click on a PDF file and Adobe Reader starts up.

However, not every file association in Windows is an OLE association. OLE is just one specific way of associating data and applications. If an application implements Windows' IOleObject() interface, then there is an OLE linking. If no software on the machine has registered an IOleObject() interface for *.PDF files (for example) then *.PDF files cannot be packaged using OLE."

Do you have Acrobat Reader installed on you pc?

Hope it helps,

Raúl
