Function Specific Errors

Return code Description
OLEUI_ERR_STANDARDMAX

Remarks

The link source is not changed by the Change Source dialog box itself. Instead, it is up to the caller to change the link source using the returned file and item strings. The Edit Links dialog box typically does this for the caller.

Note

The oledlg.h header defines OLEUICHANGESOURCE as an alias which automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
