Default How do I reference graphic images in formulas rather than text?

I'm trying to create an automated seating chart. I'd like to use the
"vlookup" function to display the student's picture in the appropriate
location on the chart just as I'm using "vlookup" to display the student's
name.

I am trying to perform a similar task and am a VB novice. I can't get this
to work for my situation. Can you provide some extra info?

Thanks,

I am trying to create a table that shows images (shaded pies: no
shade,1/4,1/2,3/4,full shade) to represent progress on measures hitting
targets. We have these five images that would be referenced in a table with
multiple columns and multiple rows.

Thanks!

Hi Daigles,

Is my interpretation of your situation correct?

You want each cell in your table of multiple rows and columns to be
able to show one of five mini piechart pictures, where the one that is
displayed depends on the value in the same cell.
