<para>The applications which make up &koffice; are capable of a fine degree of integration between each other.</para>
<note><para>Because the actual process of inserting a component varies depending on the application, this chapter will not detail 
every step of the process.  You will need to be familiar with the basics of using the other application in order to correctly insert 
a component from that application</para>
<para>Refer to the help files of the other applications for more specific information.</para></note>
<sect2 id="kparts-insert"><title>General instructions</title>
<para>There are two ways to insert a component (spreadsheet, presentation, graph, etc) from another application in &koffice;:</para>

<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Selecting <menuchoice>
<guimenu>Insert</guimenu><guimenuitem>Object Frame</guimenuitem></menuchoice> from
the menubar.</para>
<para>You will be given a list of &koffice; applications to choose from.  Select the application you desire.</para>
</listitem>

<listitem>
<para>or by clicking <inlinemediaobject><imageobject><imagedata
fileref="kpart.png" format="PNG"
align="center"/></imageobject></inlinemediaobject> on the
toolbar.</para>
<para>A dialog box will appear with a list of &koffice; applications to choose from.  Select the application you desire.</para>
<para>&kword; 
will now ask you to define a frame for this object. Place the mouse pointer where you want the upper left corner of the frame to 
be located, and click once with the &LMB;.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>

<para>&kword; will now execute the application you selected <emphasis>from within &kword;</emphasis>.  The details of each
application are different.  Please see the application manuals for the specific &koffice; application for details on the use of that
application. (In other words, from this point on, if you insert a spreadsheet from &kspread;, then the windows will act the same
as &kspread;.)</para>
</sect2>
<sect2 id="kparts-edit"><title>Working with the inserted component</title>
<para>To edit the data within the component, simply double click with the mouse pointer and &kword; will change the toolbars, menuitems and
application structure to match the &koffice; application.  This way, you can use the application specific tools to refine your component.</para>
<note><para>The frame that contains the embedded data, can be <link linkend="frames">manipulated</link> 
the same as any other frame in &kword;.</para></note>
<para>When you save your document, the component is saved within the &kword; document.</para>
