Nesting images within cells

There might be a simple solution I am over looking but is there a way to attach an image to a specified cell so when I sort my list the image will move with the row rather than remain floating?

Thank!

I don't have v.X to test in but it should work the same there: Just click in
the cell where you want the image & insert it there. If the image is already
somewhere in the doc you can drag it into the appropriate cell but you need
to be careful of where the image anchor is if it is a floating object (some
form of Text Wrapping applied). It's best if the image is set to In Line
with Text, but in either case you can also cut/paste the image into the
cell. Sorting the table should be no problem.

Sorry, I forgot which hat I was wearing %-} Images in Excel cannot be
inserted into cells. They are graphic objects which float in a separate
"layer" of the document & aren't even attached to cells in any way.

However, that's not to say that it *can't* be handled if it's worth the
effort. Have a look here:
