I need to have an image remain visible on a worksheet while the user
copies text from the image into cells below. The users have 100's of
scanned images, and for small clean images a picturebox works fine - no
problem. But for larger images, the user will need to scroll, zoom, and
possibly enhance the image in order to read it.

I've tried embedding the Kodak image control, Ppt slides and
presentations and MSPhotoEd with code like:
ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="PowerPoint. Show.8",
Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=False).Activate
(from recorded macros) but the image always vanishes when each s/sheet
cell gets focus to enter its data.

What am I doing wrong? Or is there a better way?

Many thanks
