You can insert the picture (under Insert|Picture|From file in xl2003 menus)
Then Insert|Picture|Word Art And drag the word art over the picture. You may find that excel isn't the best authoring program for something like this. Maybe MSWord??? Jay wrote: Can anyone help me?

Since this sounds like an almost one-time use, you're probably looking for
something inexpensive. How about free? One of the best general purpose graphic file tools is IrfanView which is available at no cost from www.irfanview.com - I'm not absolutely certain that it has the ability to add text onto a picture, but the chances are good. Another to look at would be SnagIt from www.techsmith.com - you can download a demo version and use that. Watch out, this is a dynamite application and you may just end up purchasing a full license! I use this one regularly on all my machines, and it definitely allows adding text to pictures. "Jay" wrote: Can anyone help me?
