Default Importing bound objects (bitmaps) from Access to Excel

I've done it two ways. The first is just exporting from Access (analysis
with Excel). The other was in Excel:

Data Import Data Select Datasource (the database) Select Table (or
query).

Another person in the Access question area provided me with a program to
export all of the photos but they make individual files and I don't know how
to import them all into the spreadsheet so I don't know if that's a help or
not.

Each record is that of a student in an orphanage school and I'm about to get
the data from five other schools so I'd really like to have something work.
Most of the end users are not at all familiar with Access but seem somewhat
comfortable with Excel.

Thanks for any help you can provide!

I have an Access database where each record has an imbedded bitmap picture

in
it. When I Import that data into Excel, the photo does not import. Does
anyone know how I can get the photos into the spreadsheet as well? This

is
pretty important so I really appreciate anyone's help.
