    Mouseover a cell ---> Pop-up a picture

    Hello guys,

    I wonder if it's possible to pop-up a picture when mouseover a specific cell. For a example:
    In A1 cell I have the number 1234. Is it possible when I pass over the A1 cell, pop-up a picture named "1234.jpg" which is saved in a specific folder ?

    Thanks in advance,

    Fantikos

    Hello my friend,

    thanks a lot for your answer.
    The point is pictures saved together with the Excel file and in case of 2000 or more pictures, the file will be huge !!! .... I mean, difficult to handle or transfer through InterNet ...

    Make the pictures smaller then...

    Does the resulting Excel file containing the pictures end up being a larger filesize than the Excel sheet WITHOUT the images in it, but including the image files themselves?

    Hi,

    In the zip file you have an exel 2007 file and 3 pictures. You must put these files in "C:\ShowPicture" folder.
