Images in Excel?
 

I have a file (for a family directory) that contains normal field
(text-based) entries and alos I have added in some images. I am using Mail
Merge in Word to create a directory and the text fields come over but not the
images contained in the image field. What do I need to do to the images in
Excel to have both Excel recognize them and be usable in other applications?

Images in Excel?
 

jbrzez,

No takers so far, and I don't know a direct way to keep images with the
data. You may have to keep the image files somewhere and keep the name of
the file in the Excel list and include it as a merge field. Then write code
in Word to go get the image. That would be in the output (Form Letter, Word
calls it) of the merge process. Someone in one of the (very many) Word
newsgroups can probably take it from there. Probably
