Linked Picture?
 

I think I read somewhere that a picture of a workbook object could be
pasted into other MS Office documents, but the picture coulb be linked
to the workbook so that changes could be made to the workbook and they
would show up in the other MS Office document.

This supposedly saves file size as the entire workbook is not embedded
into the other document.

Does anyone know of this technique? If it does exist, how is it done?

I know this is an old post, but I see there have been 15 views so some
people must be interested.

I found a different solution, but...

I stumbled on how to paste a picture on one of the MVP sites, I believe
it was Jon Peltier's site?

Simply hold the Shift key click on Edit, and some new features are
present, including Copy Picture and Paste Picture.

I don't think the links stay, but I am not sure... Just use trial and
error. Hope this helps someone...

When you copy with this method, you just get a static picture.

If you want a linked picture use the Camera Tool found under
ToolsCustomizeCommandsTools

Drag that button to yopur Toolbar.

Select a range of cells and take a picture with Camera Tool.

Paste it and it will update as original data is changed.

I just had shoulder replacement surgery and have a tough time typing
with two hands, much less with one.

Wish the forums all had spell check...

Just had to reply to yopur tpyo... :rolleyes:
