Default reducing size of multiple embedded graphics


I use Excel to generate signs with some common data. The common data
includes a Corel Draw graphic about 150KB in size. Since it is used
100 times that makes my file quite large to save. Is there a way to
embed it once and then use an indirect reference for all other
entries?
I embedded the graphic in cell A2 (along with text) and then in cells
A6, A10, etc. tried the function "=A2" but it only copied the 'text' but
not the graphic. Naturally I can 'paste' the graphic into each cell but
then my file is more than 15MB in size (100 copies of the same graphic)
