Default grid references on a map

Hi there

Is it possible to plot pixels in an object/image that I have placed on my
worksheet.

Let's say I have an image on my screen which is an outline map of the UK,
be-it a bitmap , GIF etc, from a list of X and Y values (ie GIS grid
references) can I plot a pixel within the object/image on my worksheet. I
can calculate where the X and Y should be from my list of values. All I want
to do is edit the object/image within Excel.

To better explain this, we all have I presume MS Paint , load in an image
and draw lots of dots over it. Can I use Excel to do the same or similar
thing.

In a nutshell it's plotting HotSpots .

TIA., kevin
