  7. You didn't explain how to post an image from one Excel document into the header of another. Which is exactly what I'm trying to do. Excel won't let you paste the image. The image isn't saved as a file so I can't browse to import it. It only exists as a logo on another spreadsheet. This must be a limitation with Excel.

I've tried to reformat the size, to no avail. How does this get corrected? I don't want to change every doc to a pdf. Thanks.

  15. After I insert a picture in a cell, how do I refer to it so that it appears in a specific cell on another worksheet based on a drop-down list?

  16. In my Excel file that i have been using for a year I inserted photos but now they are locked, I cannot access, delete, change them nor can I insert new ones . How to proceed?

  17. Hey,

  19. Hi there! I am trying to insert an image into a cell and I followed your directions exactly above and it's still not working right. It still "floats" on the spreadsheet and is not truly in the cell if that makes sense. I have already resized and selected "move and size with cells" but it still doesn't work right. Any thoughts? I am using Office Professional Plus 2013. Thank you!
