Targa Images

[jmpd]

Our offices just updated a couple of systems and all of a sudden we can no
longer import Targa (.tga) images into Excel. There used to be a patch for
this, but our IS seems to think that the Targa image format is no longer
supported by Windows>

Is this true or is there a patch that allows for that image type to be
imported?

Thank you

Hi Jmpd,

What version of MS Office and MS Windows were you using previously and what versions do you have now?

The Truevision/Targa filter and a few others were basically dropped after Office XP/2002. For Office 2003 Microsoft created a
supplemental converter pack

with the filters and text converters that were being kept active.
