Pictures disappear over time

A website will download an excel file that is embedded in
an IE window. I save that file as type .xls. For about a
week, the pictures in the Excel file will display. After
that, the pictures no longer display. How do I get the
pictures that support the Excel document to save in a
location where they aren't deleted over time? I've tried
changing the web properties option to not put files in a
sub folder, but when I save in Excel, the picture files
aren't where I can find them. Also, if I save the file
as .htm instead of .xls, I get a folder with images in it
in the same folder with the file I saved. How do I do
that same thing (save the pictures in a folder in the
same location as the main file) when I save that file as
and Excel file, rather than as an htm file?

Just a guess!
Select each Picture and save it individually in your
folder before you save the file. Then you can insert the
pictures at a later date.

Thank you Peter. I will try that. I send these reports to
clients, so I am hoping for a setting in Excel that they
can change so the supporting pictures are saved in a
subfolder as they are when saving an .htm file. Thanks
again, though. I could at least send along the individual
images to clients.
