Microsoft Binder
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Microsoft Binder was an application originally included with Microsoft Office versions 95, 97 and 2000 designed to allow users to include several different types of OLE2.0 objects (e.g., Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, and PowerPoint presentations) integrated in one file. Originally a test host for OLE 2.0, it was not widely used, and was discontinued after Office 2000.
The file extension for Microsoft Binder files was .OBD, and the Office binder template format was .OBT
Binder files can still be opened in later versions of Microsoft Office up until version 2003, with the Microsoft Binder Support add-in, called Unbind which can be installed through the Add and Remove programs menu, by selecting Microsoft Office, click change, add it and update. According to Microsoft, Unbind is not included with Office 2007. However, an earlier release of Unbind is available for download from the Microsoft website.
