The information in this article applies to:
In some cases, inserting a large .WAV file object into either an OLE 1.0 or OLE 2.0 container will fail.
This problem is caused by a bug in the Sound Recorder, which fails to respond positively to a WM_DDE_REQUEST for native data. The result is that the data cannot be successfully saved because the data has not been retrieved. The problem can occur in any version of OLE.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Windows 3.1 Sound Recorder. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
This problem is not reproducible with all large .WAV files and results in a variety of symptoms from OLE 1.0 clients and OLE 2.0 containers.
