insert an ICON in a cell
 

Can you supply more information?
What icon? from where? A network file? an image in the workbook?
What prompts the insertion? User selection? Something else?

Hi Uwe

You can try this for cell D5

Sub test()
Dim myPict As Picture
With ActiveSheet.Range("D5")
Set myPict = .Parent.Pictures.Insert("C:\YourPic.bmp")
myPict.Top = .Top
myPict.Width = .Width
myPict.Height = .Height
myPict.Left = .Left
myPict.Placement = xlMoveAndSize
End With
End Sub

I have some text from a database attached to a cell a a comment. This is
working quite will with the red triangle at the top of the cell. The client
want to show a paperclip image in the cell to more graphically show a comment
is associated with the cell.

Hi Uwe

See if Debra have something for you

But I think there is no way to change the red triangle and you must add a icon on top of the cell
if you always want to see it
