Creating a pop-up information window

[TheRobsterUK]

Hi All,

I'm working on a project for university and have come to a point i
Excel where I'm a bit stuck. For the sake of clarity, I won't go int
the exact details of what my spreadsheet is supposed to do, let me jus
describe the basics in a more understandable way......

Suppose you have a worksheet that has, say, 10 small jpegs of variou
makes of car and all the pictures are from the side. Now suppose yo
have a button underneath each picture that says 'More Info?' on it
What I want to be able to do is click any of the buttons and have
window pop-up (a form?) that has further details e.g. car name, cost
manufacturer, mpg, top speed etc etc. I also want to be able to hav
more pictures, such as side, front and birds-eye views.

The pop-up window doesn't need to have any user-interaction - it's jus
for information, although it would obviously need to have a 'Close
button to get rid of it.

So....my question is: what is the best way to do this in Excel? If i
was just text then I could use a message box, but it needs to look mor
like a dialog box. Can a dialog box be used like this? I don't know if
could include .jpg files in a dialog box.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
-Ro

Hi
you can use the image element in a userform and attach this to a bitmap
