Changing and hiding link icons
When you display a linked or embedded object as an icon, WordPerfect provides a default icon and label. You can enter a different label and choose an icon from a file saved in a .ico, .exe, or .pll file. This must be done when you link or embed the object.
For a spreadsheet or database linked as regular text, you can hide the link markers shown in the margin.
