Open TIF or MDI files in Excel
 
I have scanned paper documents into TIF and MDI files using Microsoft Office
Document Imaging with OCR. How can I open either of these file formats (TIF
or MDI) in Excel? Your input will be greatly appreciated.--

Why did you OCR to a graphics format?
Normally one OCRs to something like Word, WordPad, Notebook
These can be copied or imported into Excel

Open TIF or MDI files in Excel
 
On your excel sheet, "Hyperlink" to the file that you scanned. Then when you
click on the Hyperlink your document will open.
