ironically, I have exactly the same question, but I'm not following the
conversation. I would like to put an image file (tif, bmp, whatever) in an
Excel (2000) cell. I would like it to appear as a thumbnail, until someone
wants to see it (by clicking on it). Otherwise, figures floating around a a
complete mess.

thanks

As for the code, record a macro in Excel of the insertion then convert the
VBA to whatever language you are using.
