I am using Office 2003 on Win XP.

Is it possible to code a simple image viewer inside an MS-Excel sheet;
perhaps code the drawing of an ActiveX control or some such control and then
allow the user to select a subfolder of images to display. There would need
to be a scroll button or other control to allow the user to scroll forward
and backward through the images contained in the folder.

I thought of just using the file open dialog and then switch the view to
thumbnail, but the images don't display large enough or in enough detail.

Any ideas? Thanks.
