Jerry

I'm intrigued as to why this is so important when you can save the image
from any camera or scanner so easily through the wizard in winXP and then
import into Excel via the insertimage options.

Surely for a spreadsheet (analysis, modelling, reporting tool), there are
many things more important than that to convince spreadsheet users to
upgrade.

Does

billions of additional cells, improved conditional formatting, improved
named range handling, filtering and sorting by colours, improved charting,
additional worksheet functions, improved intellisense for formula entering,
improved file format, resulting in easily interrogated files and smaller
file size, improved pivot table UI, better handling of external data
connection strings, etc, etc?

rank higher than import from scanner or camera?

Don't get me wrong, MS has a long way to go to get much of what's there
functional to a satisfactory level and I am sure there is much more
spreadsheet 'stuff' that has not been included that will at later releases,
but I would disagree that the deprecation of that feature will stop many
people upgrading.

MS collect trillions of clicks from users who have now switched of customer
experience and it is only on this they make decisions on what is cut, so it
must be a seldom used feature by most users

just my £0.02

Jerry,
goto options/customization.

Select "Commands Not in the Ribbon"
Select "Camera, Button" and add to QAT.

not ideal, but it's there.

Select any insertable object... BUT
change EMBED(xx) on the formula bar to a cell reference.

oops. wrong camera function.

I agree with Nick: Far more important options than direct access to a
capturing/scanning device. Maybe that's why i completely misread your
question. <VBG

MS indeed cut the feature due to its low usage.
