One approach that might be of interest, is something I did one time using Jim
Cone's fine Add-in called "ListFiles" and some custom VBA code. The
procedure searches a directory for image files and places them in a column in
Excel and then inserts a picture of each in the CommentBox associated with
each filename, which is also a link to the file......the picture then pops-up
as the cell is moused-over.

Hello,

I have some scientific photos stored in some picture format (in gray scale).

I am looking for a way to import these photos into an array of text-numeber
cells into Excel, which I can then process in Excel.

(If no direct method exists, then optionally - the photo-convrsion to
text-numbers can be done offline into a file, then I would have to import
that file into Excel).

It would be nice to have the opposite as well, namely, to export text-number
cell arrays into som picture format.

Can anyone advise how this can be done ?
Thanks.
