Can I put a PictureBox on an Excel Sheet?

[EmpDeity]

I know I can solve my problem with a PictureBox because I have done so in VB (okay, it was a few years ago....). But an Image just won't do. Specifically, here is what I want to accomplish.

I've got a series of small bitmaps. I want to assemble them based on a 2D set of coordinates into a mosaic. Using a PictureBox, I can do this with CurrentX/Y properties fairly easily.

Currently, I am using Office 2003.

Thanks in Advance

If you (and your users) have a PictureBox control installed, then you can probably add it to a worksheet via the 'more controls' button on the Control Toolbox toolbar.

No such luck there. 491 controls listed. I've combed through the list 3 times. No PictureBox.

Is there a way for me to bring in this control?

Only if you have a licensed copy of one, from a copy of Visual Studio perhaps?

Would my copy of VB6 have one? (Putting Visual Studio on my machine would be painful. I work for a large company and the beaurocracy is amazing.)

So do I. Nothing amazes me anymore!

I can't recall if it's in VB6 offhand and I'm not sure if I have a machine with just VB on it.

It's in VB6. I'm looking at it right now.

Okay, I double checked. I do have pictureboxes in my VB6 platform. So now the questions are can I bring that control into Excel and if I can, how?
