Default Putting many pictures in an Excel Spreadsheet

Clivey:
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried both methods.
1) The Hyperlink appeared, but when I click on it I received a pop-up
stating "Can not open specified file"

2) When I used Fill Effects, I found the picture, chose it, but only the
name of the picture's file showed up, not the picture itself. I then clicked
on "Insert" but the picture did not appear in the Comment Box.

Any suggestions.
Thanks for your time,

Tom

Tom,
You could put a hyperlink in to any file including a picture file, by
selecting the cell and hitting Ctrl K. Then find the file you want to
link.
Alternatively, to insert a picture into a comment, create a comment
(Shift F2), delete any text and then right click the comment and choose
Format Comment/Colours and Lines/Fill Section/Color/Fill
Effects/Picture.

I want to show pictures in an Excel spreadsheet. I would like to either
embed
a picture in a single cell that could be enlarged as need to view. If
that is
not possible I would like to embed a link to a jpeg file that could
then be
clicked on to open that file. Any ideas about how this could be
accomplished?

I am using Excel 2003.
