using, referencing bmp in spreadsheets
 

Here's some code. Some of it I did by "recording", for the rest I winged it.
I
get fowled up at the end... each time the sheet updates, the .bmps are
reinserted. I was trying to find the company name & if it's there, replace
it
with the bmp. Then, the next time the sheet is updated, if the bmp is there,
I don't want it to do anything. (This is just a small portion of a very
large set of macros which perform some automation.)

Up to the ElseIF portion it seems to run fine, but I don't know how to stop
the code from reinserting the bmps, so I thought I could have it search for
the "extra" set each time and just delete it.

If anyone can help, I'd be obliged. (Does the "recorder" add
extraneous information -- more than you need to know?" It just seems so
cumbersome.)

Here's the code... thanks again, PS
