Default how do I add a caption to a picture in Excel

I know Word has the ability to caption a picture (insert picture - right
click on picture - Caption). Does Excel have similar functionality?

Thanks for the suggestion. That's what I'm doing currently. Is there a way
with a little more finesse?

Hi,

I tried doing it several ways in Word and Excel also, not much luck.
I think this is the best possible way, unless one of the experts share their
views.

I'm not an expert here, but you could use a Label (either from the Form's or
Visual Basic toolbars) instead of a TextBox... then the Label's framework
would be transparent for the Form's Label or you could set the Label's
BackStyle property to 0-fmBackStyleTransparent for the Visual Basic Label...
that way only the text (without any framing) will show on top of the
picture... that might look better for what you are doing.
