In Excel using URLs, how to display pictures stored on a server?

[Guest]

For Excel 2003 SP2:

I want to prepare an Excel report where the output rows have a photo and
it's description. In each row, 1 cell is for the description, the next is the
photo and the 3rd is for another person's comments about the photos on each
row.

You cannot insert a picture into a cell, only on top of the cell.

Just Insert>Picture>From File to wherever you want it.

Alternatives to the above.................

To have a picture show up when you select an item from a DV list or type in a
name see JE MCGimpsey's site.

As written John's code allows for only one picture to be displayed.

Got to Debra Dalgeish's site for a sample workbook from Bernie Dietrick for
adding pictures to selections.

Alows for more than one picture to be displayed.
