Default Copying a worksheet in Excel

Why do objects, eg a logo, sometimes give stacked copies when a worksheet is
copied in excel. You don't know it has happened until you save your document
and it is huge. Then you have to click on the object, in this case a logo,
and click and delete up to a 100 copies that are neatly stacked one on top of
the other until you are left with the 1 nr logo you are after! Any ideas how
to stop this from happening?

I've never seen excel do this.

Are you sure that the original worksheet didn't have 100's of logos already
there.

You may want to post back with more details (version of excel, especially) to
see if anyone else has experienced this.

Dave,

Thanks for responding. I checked the Excel Version used by my colleague, it
was 2002, but it happened on my machine too which uses 2000 so I don't think
it makes any difference. It seems to be an intermittent problem which pops
up now and again. I will try and replicate the process and see if it happens
again.
