Hi, and thanks in advance for any help or direction you can provide.

I'm trying to fix a problem with an Excel file that won't run properly on a
Mac. The file was created on a PC, and contains forms with an image that
seem to be "breaking" the macros. I'm new to Excel on the Mac, so please be
gentle.

Here's why I think it's the image and not some other ActiveX-related issue:

First, if I remove the image from the forms in the original (problematic) PC
file, the macros seem to work fine -- both on PC and Mac.

Second, I ran isolated tests of various form elements (e.g., buttons, radio
buttons) both on the Mac and on the PC. Those limited elements worked fine
on both files (Mac-created and PC-created) and on both OS's (Mac and Win),
*until* I inserted the image on the PC version. That PC version then
wouldn't run on the Mac. When I tried to insert an image on the Mac version,
it wouldn't even allow me to select a file to insert (all image file names
were greyed out) until I selected 'All Files' instead of just 'Picture
Files'... and even then, it didn't end up inserting *anything*.

So: Original PC file, no image = runs fine. New image, new PC file = won't
run on Mac. New image, new Mac file = won't allow me to insert image.

Has anyone encountered the same issue before, or have any idea what could be
causing this problem?

I'm using Mac OS X 10.4.6 and Excel 2004 for Mac 11.2.3 , plus Win XP 2002
w/ SP2 and Excel 2003 w/ SP2.

Many thanks again from a Mac n00b.
