IIRC OLE has something to do with the format in which Microsoft Office (version <= 10) stores it's documents, right? Can you provide some more No - OLE was a technology to 'compose' applications. IE you could embedd (OL*E*) a Corel-Draw graphic in a Word document and edit the graphic while displaying it in Word. Just a kind of graphical DDE.
I'm not sure if File is the right category, because it has nothing to do with file formats directly. It is more a kind of a data structure, how to save them in a file depends on the application.
