D,

You can't put graphics in back of cells, except as a background picture,
which is for the whole sheet (Format - Sheet - Background). It's limited,
and doesn't print.

What you're describing with the dog icon sounds like graphics in Word, where
you can put them in back of the document text.

In an earlier version of Excel graphics could be placed behind text in a
cell. On the drawing menu the icon that controlled this feature was a
little
dog. In Excel 2002 this does not appear to be a viable option. Does this
feature strike a bell with anyone? Is there a way to accomplish this in
2002? I want to add a signature into a box and not have the signature
overwrite the box.
