Using WEXP, how do you specify the size of OLE objects in the Word document?

The DOORS object attributes called “WEXP Width" and "WEXP Height” can be used control the size of all the embedded OLE once exported into objects in Word. The measurement units are millimetres.

I have tried everything from 0 to Integer Max and nothing seems to affect the size of the ole.

Is there any other attribute or setting I need to configure before attempting to use this feature?

"WEXP Width" and "WEXP Height" don't work for me, neither. But you can actually set the size of the OLE objects via the view from which they are exported. If you use "Tools -> Support tools -> Set OLE size for current object" for an object with an OLE image, the OLE's size is adjusted to the current column width. And this size is respected by the export. Call it for a narrow column and you get a small exported OLE, for a wide column you get a large one. It requires a bit of try and error before the images nicely fit on a A4 page, but it works.
