hole in a picture

[Dan Tabla]

There is any way to make a hole in a picture and that hole should be exactly
on top of an Excel Cell?

You would have to create a transparent section in the image, and then
the image would have to be Locked to the sheet. YMMV.

Cool idea. I think so. Excel can import .GIF images. GIF images support
transparency. Then it is a matter of designing the GIF so that it's size is
right and the cell size hole is right. Also, you would have a problem
"Clicking" in the cell afterwards because the image would be in front of it.
However, if all you do is use the cell the output values, then it should be
fine.

Herbert this link is opening an example of a picture but is not explaining
anything.

Can you go to Format>Sheet>Background and choose your "print screen" image
as background?

It won't have "holes" in it but if light enough you can see the cells on top
of the BG and type in them.

Yes you can attach a Print Screen but problem still not solved because I have
to attach several Print Screens vertically and I dont know how to do it. In
the end I should have to attach a very long picture...Paint is limited, you
can put together only 2 print screens.
