How Do I Place a Picture Behind Cells

[Jon]

I would like to place a picture in behind a certain group of cells. However
I cannot seem to move pictures back any further then other pictures in the
worksheet. I cannot seem to find this topic in the Excel Help Query. Does
anyone know how to do this?

Jon,

Excel doesn't put a picture behind the cells. All graphics go on top of the
cells.

There's a background feature, Format - Sheet - Background. It tiles the
picture in back of the cells (starts in the upper left corner and repeats
down and across. It's actual size, meaning pixel-for-pixel, so it doesn't
zoom up or down. It doesn't print.

You can cheat, by reversing the procedure and pasteing a group of cells over
a picture..........select the cells, then do Copy > Ctrl-Chift-Edit >
PastePictureLink, and then dragging the "picture of the cells" over on top of
the picture.........values typed in the original cells will link over to
appear on top of the picture.........
