Default eXcel 2000 export CSV with images

It's certainly possible to write a custom VBA procedure for generating your
own files, but you'd have to figure out how to represent the information,
and you'd have to realize that it would no longer be a valid CSV file.

Oz,

In a word, no. CSV gives data only. No formatting, margins, formulas,
links, etc. If you open a CSV with Notepad, you'll see every character in
the file (except the end-of-line characters). There simply ain't nothing
else.

Thanks for replying.

Yes, I know CSV is in a text file format, but I was hoping to get just
the
reference name. When I click on the image in excel, the window that
normal
shows what row/cell you are referencing, it displays "Picture 411", which
I
assume is Excel's internal reference for that picture (There is a
different
number for each picture). This is what I would like to get exported to
the
CSV file if possible.

Any suggestions?

I have an eXcel spreadsheet (2000 ver) that has imbedded images in one
column
of the cells. I want to export the worksheet to a CSV file. (It is
like
a
product catalogue with each row containing an image of the product,
along
with name, description, price, etc)

Everything works fine when I save as CSV for Windows, except the
column
with
the images is empty for all rows. I would like for it to contain the
file
name of the image.

Is there any way to create a CSV file to include the images'
filenames?
