Change the icon or description of an embedded object

When you insert an object, you have the option to display it as an icon. PowerPoint
supplies the descriptive text that appears under the icon.

But what if you decide later that you want a different icon? Or different text
beneath the icon?

Easy.

Rightclick the object

Point to [Whatever] Object

Click Convert

Click Change Icon

In the resulting dialog box, you can change the icon and also the text that appears
under the icon.

Bingo.
