We currently keep a column in an excel spreadsheet that contains the
network path for the picture of the record. I would like to write a
macro that converts the path to a linked and/or embedded picture and if
possible resizes it to the cell.

I have been able to accomplish such a task in access (using an image
control and some VBA)but unfortunatly can't use access for this
project.

Is this possible?

Any help would be greatly apreciated, thanks in advance.
