    Drilling a bitmap

    Need to drill a hole into a bitmap in excel.
    Have pasted a "print screen" bitmap into an excel worksheet.
    How do I cut a square in the middle of the bitmapped image so that an excell cell is visible.
    regards Mick

    Re: Drilling a bitmap

    One way.

    Use a shape, rectangle, with obscure colour fill. Place that over the bitmap. Group the image nad shape and then copy as picture/paste as bitmap picture.
    You can not set the obscure colour as transparent.

    You can then delete original intact image.
    Cheers
