right click on the picture and select format picture.
in the protection tab, make sure Locked is checked. then go to Tools=Protection=Protect sheet In xl2000 and earlier, make sure objects are selected in xl2002 and later, make sure you don't allow the user to "edit objects" finish applying the protection. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Abe" wrote: I have a worksheet with a number of pictures in it.

You can unprotect and protect the sheet using code, so just do that in your
procedures when necessary to work with the pictures. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Abe" wrote: Tom, Will the VBA code I have still be able to edit, move and delete the pictures? -Abe Tom Ogilvy wrote: right click on the picture and select format picture. in the protection tab, make sure Locked is checked. then go to Tools=Protection=Protect sheet In xl2000 and earlier, make sure objects are selected in xl2002 and later, make sure you don't allow the user to "edit objects" finish applying the protection. -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "Abe" wrote: I have a worksheet with a number of pictures in it.
