All,
Using the Excel XML Spreadsheet namespace is there a way to embed or link to
a graphic file on the server? The image must be in the spreadsheet when it
is saved to a file.
Similar to this:

<Worksheet ss:Name="myWorkSheet">
<Table>
<Row>
<Cell>
<Data ss:Type="String" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">
<IMG SRC="http://localhost/someimage.gif"></IMG>
</Data>
</Cell>
</Row>
</Table>
...

Thanks in advance!
- Eric

I've looked into this as well (cell backgrounds). You can't do it -
the XML spreadsheet format doesn't have an element which allows you
(this is stated explicitly in the documentation, but it's difficult to
find !)

Sorry ;-)
Cheers - Neil

From what I have read in this group,
Charts & Pictures & VBA are not supported in the XMLSS.

Sad :-(

Has anyone found a workaround? Suggestions?
