The images are actually quite simple, but imbedding the files would take small block of instruction, less than the one used for uploading photobucket pictures.

Basically, you open the pdf file, save entire document (which is alt E, B)... then you must leave the file open. Closing it will dump your clipboard. Go to the spot on your excell where you want the thumbnail and paste. I think the hot keys have changed with MS07 as we didn't upgrade until mid09 in the army.

Then you can close the pdf. Your thumbnail can be resized and placed as necessary as it doesn't reside in a cell, but rather over the page. Then if you email out the xls everything goes with it.

Recommend pdf for this purpose as images take up so much space over a pdf.

Anyway, good idea Rob.
