Insert a picture in the COMMENT window

[DraftThe3Car]

I know how to right click on a cell and then click INSERT COMMENT.

Does anyone know if it is possible to insert a jpg in to that comment window? This will be perfect for my product presentation.

You can copy a graph as a picture by holding down shift and using the Edit menu. not sure if you can link it though.

this is a fantastic thread - just wait til i find a use for all this functionality!

How do i know where the picture is saved in order to locate it for the Fill effects for the coment?

 

[sann0638]

This is probably a massively long-winded way of doing it, but shift-copy as picture the chart, paste it into Paint (the program), then save wherever you like. Then do the formatting comment procedure. It works, but if anyone has a better way...

GEORGE-B...........many, many thanks!

I think that many here don't appreciate that those of us seeking help are doing just that, and need a little "Step X Step" instruction.

Thank you all SO MUCH for your imput and answers.

 

[GeorgeB]

You're very welcome. Pay it forward when you can.
By the way I pick up those instructions right here on this forum. Wish I could remember who posted them so I could give proper credit.

I, too, thank you all. And thanks, Draft, for the query. That is a great tip; I've applied it already to some of my 'sheets and it adds a nice touch.

Re the pictures in comments box:

Ive been involved heavy on this subject a few times on this bard and pals Ivan F Moala and Chris D also-

This is the trick above is the mothod.

ANY image in bmp, jpg or what ever can be inserted. well not as such its a representation of the image as background, text can go over it also.

Best is to play arround


the graph question i reply to of cause all you need is copy the graph and paste in to MSPaint save as GRAPH1 and select file format jpg is smallest normally and copy method above.

WARNING quality can suffer as is background.

JACKs TIP:

Get rid if square box, try clouds and design you own shapes/ frames

Good fun, but do tell the boss how you did it, else he will do the same and your loose the something speacial you have learnt

Have fun!
