Microsoft Excel Workbook - Instruction Sheet

[FRED_SHEET]

I need to add a set of instructions to my Microsoft Excel Workbook. I was going to try and do it by just adding text to cells but that is not very user friendly. I tried to embed a PDF file but was not successful.

I would like some recommendations or suggestions for how you handle this task.

Any help would be appreciated.

What sort of instructions do you want to add?

Is it simple steps on how to use the workbook or something more complicated?

PS How did the PDF not work?

The instructions are fairly simple probably the equivalent of two maybe three Word pages at the max with maybe one or two graphics. I would convert the word to a PDF file.

I was able to embed the PDF file but I can get it to open. I just embedded the instructions for embedding a PDF file from the internet as a test. I Adobe Actobat Icon is there but it just won't open. Not sure what the problem is as I thought I had followed the instructions pretty carefully.

If you have the instructions in a PDF why not add a (hyper) link to the PDF to the worksheet instead of embedding?

That should be straightforward and you could even assign the link to a shape rather than just having a 'standard' text hyperlink.
